Eurovia was involved in overhauling runways at several airports in the province. At Montreal’s Pierre-Elliott-Trudeau airport, resurfacing work using an innovative asphalt mix was carried out on a critical section of the airside pavement to improve safety and durability and ensure smooth flight operations. At Bromont airport, use of local aggregates and airfield asphalt has reduced the carbon footprint and improved runway reliability. At Saint-Hubert airport, modernised taxiways and electrical systems and a new de-icing station are supporting traffic growth and enhancing passenger safety. At Bonaventure airport, 80% of the refurbishment of the aprons and lighting system was completed in 14 days, ensuring continuity of service while delivering modernised infrastructure.
In New Brunswick, Northern continues working with Maritime Road Development Corporation (MRDC) to upgrade a strategic section of Route 2 near Fredericton.
