Fredericton-Moncton Highway Project Toll Highway (FMHP)
Project Name: Fredericton-Moncton Highway Project (FMHP)
Project Location: Trans-Canada Highway between Fredericton and Moncton, New Brunswick
Value: $585 million
Status: Completed
Description: The first P3 highway project in New Brunswick.
It consists of 195 km of four-lane divided Trans-Canada Highway (Route 2) and approximately 12 km of
four-lane divided highway connectors (Routes 1, 7, 8). There are 21 interchanges (15 full and 3 partial
interchanges along with 3 high-speed connecting interchanges to other major highways) and over 100
structures on the facility including 73 bridges (Saint John River bridge and Jemseg River bridge, each
approximately 1 km long) and numerous large pipe arch culverts, and wildlife passages under the
highway. Four maintenance depots located along the highway corridor serve as the bases of highway
operations and were also constructed as part of the highway design-build project.
During the third season of the highway construction, a change in the Provincial policy prompted the
removal of toll collection on the FMHP. This resulted in removal of all tolling infrastructure constructed
up to that point in time, including several tolling plazas and support facilities.

New Brunswick Route 1 Gateway Project (R1GP)
Project Name: New Brunswick Route 1 Gateway Project (R1GP)
Project Location: Route 1 Highway between USA/Canada border in St. Stephen and the Route 1/Route 2 connector in
River Glade, NB
Value: $540 million
Status: Completed
Description: The third P3 highway project in New Brunswick.
The R1GP consists of the design-build of 59 km of new main four-lane highway, 5 new or modifications
to existing interchanges and associated crossing roads and numerous access roads, and selected
upgrades along the existing four-lane sections of Route 1. The R1GP crosses through three groundwater
wellfield sources, has over 180 watercourse crossings, 34 new bridge structures (11 river crossings and
23 grade separations (8 major river crossings under NWPA)), replacement of 2 bridge structures and
widening of 1 existing structure, over 250 culverts of various shapes and sizes, over 100 km of wildlife
fencing and several wildlife passages under the highway.
A previously unknown archaeological site was discovered in one of the design-build sections after the
start of construction. The archaeological site was determined to be Paleoindian age (approximately
11,000 years old) and is one of the oldest sites in Northeastern North America. Given the significance of
the find and the length of time that would be required to adequately investigate and mitigate
construction impacts to the site, avoidance was recommended and alternative alignments had to be
considered. This resulted in realigning approximately 3 km of the highway approximately 200 m north of
the original alignment.

Abu Dhabi and the Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation.
The project site covers a land area of approximately 13 km2
along approximate 8.3 km of marine
coastline. The project is complex and site construction works include temporary and permanent
infrastructure and marine and land-based construction activities.
Temporary Infrastructure consists of construction workforce housing and living accommodations;
construction utilities; transportation; construction/haul roads; construction materials lay-down and
staging areas; concrete batch plants and ice plant; concrete bulk materials storage; hazardous material
and fuel storage facilities; construction buildings; sanitary waste management facilities (13 sewage
treatment plants); construction waste management facilities; construction security facilities; vehicle
parking; training facilities; inland dike area for dredge spoil management/disposal; coffer dam structures
for intake and discharge channels; and temporary wharf/barge docking facility.
Permanent Infrastructure consists of nuclear building for each unit (including nuclear reactor, nuclear
steam generator, new and spent fuel handling, heat removal and support systems and equipment);

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECT EXPERIENCE Featured Project Descriptions Fredericton-Moncton Highway Project Toll Highway (FMHP) Project Name: Fredericton-Moncton Highway Project (FMHP) Project Location: Trans-Canada Highway between Fredericton and Moncton, New Brunswick Value: $585 million Status: Completed Description: The first P3 highway project in New Brunswick. It consists of 195 km of four-lane divided Trans-Canada Highway (Route 2) and approximately 12 km of four-lane divided highway connectors (Routes 1, 7, 8). There are 21 interchanges (15 full and 3 partial interchanges along with 3 high-speed connecting interchanges to other major highways) and over 100 structures on the facility including 73 bridges (Saint John River bridge and Jemseg River bridge, each approximately 1 km long) and numerous large pipe arch culverts, and wildlife passages under the highway. Four maintenance depots located along the highway corridor serve as the bases of highway operations and were also constructed as part of the highway design-build project. During the third season of the highway construction, a change in the Provincial policy prompted the removal of toll collection on the FMHP. This resulted in removal of all tolling infrastructure constructed up to that point in time, including several tolling plazas and support facilities.
