Working with local partners to deliver the Hon. Herb Gray Parkway
WINDSOR, ON, July 22, 2013 /CNW/ - The Windsor Essex Mobility Group (WEMG) today reaffirmed its commitment to building a safe, high-quality and cost-effective new parkway for Ontario.
The new Rt. Hon. Herb Gray Parkway, connecting a vital trade corridor and revitalizing the communities that surround Windsor, is being built to the highest standards. Safety is our number-one priority, and we stand 100 percent behind our work.
The manufacturing process of the girders used on the Parkway has been certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), the standard in compliance, safety and durability. Every girder installed in the Parkway bears the CSA mark.
Moreover, we have been working collaboratively with our partners in the provincial government to help improve the contract administration procedures on this project, which is the first transportation public-private partnership in Ontario. We are committed, as is the Minister, to ensuring improvements in the contract administration as this important project continues.
We are proud of the efforts made by our local partners, 90 percent of whom are employed from trades in the Windsor area. And we are committed to completing the parkway on schedule.
