Insights
The
The timing aligns well with increased infrastructure spending trends in major urban centers. The project's complexity and high-profile nature could serve as a valuable reference for securing similar contracts in other metropolitan areas. The long-term nature of the rehabilitation project provides revenue visibility and operational stability, though margins may face pressure due to the project's technical complexity and urban location constraints.
The technical scope of rehabilitating 2.2 kilometers of elevated roadway, including 91 bridge spans and 5 ramps, represents a significant engineering challenge. The project's location in Toronto's core adds layers of complexity due to traffic management requirements and urban constraints. The comprehensive nature of work - from structural modifications to deck replacement and substructure rehabilitation - showcases Stantec's full-service capabilities.
The Morrison Hershfield acquisition proves particularly strategic here, as it doubled Stantec's transportation staff in Ontario. This enhanced capacity will be important for managing a project of this scale and complexity. The long-term relationship with Toronto since 1979 and previous work on other Gardiner sections provides valuable institutional knowledge that should help mitigate execution risks and optimize project delivery.

Complex infrastructure rehabilitation in the heart of Toronto
The Gardiner Expressway is one of Canada’s busiest corridors, with 140,000 vehicles traveling it daily. Age, heavy use, weather, and salt have necessitated a multiyear rehabilitation to extend its life.

“The Gardiner Expressway is a critical corridor for the city,” said Susan Walter, executive vice president of Infrastructure at Stantec. “We have been working with the City of Toronto’s on its multiyear Strategic Rehabilitation Plan to support the safe operation and increase the life of this 60-year-old expressway since 2019.”
Section 4 of the rehabilitation will replace 2.2 kilometers of elevated roadway from Grand Magazine Street to York Street. It is in the heart of the City of Toronto and includes 91 bridge spans and 5 on- and off-ramps. The rehabilitation strategy will include structural modifications, deck replacement, structural steel girder repairs or replacement, and substructure rehabilitation and associated works.
