The widening project will add two new lanes to the 407 in each direction, one of which will be opened for traffic usage, while the other will be used as a shoulder lane. Aecon will also perform various works including grading, drainage, asphalt paving, electrical and overhead sign support structures.

Construction begins immediately and is scheduled for completion in early September 2010.

"We are very pleased to be continuing work on Highway 407 ETR, as we have played a major role in the construction and expansion of this highway since 1994," said Teri McKibbon, CEO of Aecon's Infrastructure Group.
