Infrastructure

SNC-Lavalin designs and builds large- and small-scale infrastructure projects around the world, from water treatment facilities and airports, to a wide range of civil works projects, such as roads, bridges and flood control systems. It is also experienced in arranging innovative debt and equity financing, an important advantage in both developed and emerging countries as governments in many parts of the world privatize public infrastructure systems.

Privatization has created a need for concession projects, which SNC-Lavalin is particularly well-positioned to meet. Its Highway 407 toll road is the largest privatization project in Canadian history, and unique in that it has no toll booths and does not require drivers to stop. Since its inception in 1999, it has become recognized as one of the most successful road concessions in the world.
