VINCI Construction Grands Projets delivered its project in the United Kingdom in 1992: building the Second Severn Crossing, a cable-stayed bridge connecting England and Wales across the Severn Estuary. The Company has since built long-term local partnerships that have led to projects such as this one: widening a 23-kilometre section of the M1 and converting it from a dual 3-lane to a dual 4-lane configuration – without disrupting traffic.

Supply drinking water to the cities of Muscat and Quriyat – that was the objective of this project entrusted to VINCI Construction Grands Projets by the Government of the Sultanate of Oman, which called for the construction of dams on the Wadi Dayqah some 80 kilometres from the capital city of Oman. The project included construction of a roller-compacted concrete main dam 572,000 cubic metres in volume, 75 metres high, and 435 metres long as well as an ancillary, earth-fill dam 960,000 cubic metres in volume, 48 metres high, and 360 metres long.

We were commissioned by Goro Nickel SAS to build a port with two 190 m wharves and two 90 m metal approach jetties for the Goro Nickel project. Located in Prony Bay, south of Noumea in New Caledonia, the purpose of the Goro Nickel port is to facilitate access to the nickel plant. We were also in charge of the civil engineering for this nickel plant, including the concrete infrastructures and all metal inserts.

After restoring Line 1 of the Saint Petersburg metro, VINCI Construction Grands Projets went back to the same city to build a shopping centre. Located on one of the main thoroughfares of the city, the Raduga shopping centre in Saint Petersburg occupies a 25-hectare site. This project consisted of a design-build mandate as well as the commercialisation and operation of an 80,000-m2 shopping complex including a REAL hypermarket, an OBI home improvement shop, a multiplex, a merchant gallery, and 3,500 parking spots. Situated 7 kilometres from the centre and close to the airport, the building was opened to the public on April 25, 2007.

VINCI Construction Grands Projets was mandated by Hydro-Québec to build the Toulnustouc hydroelectric power plant. The project includes excavation work, heavy engineering concreting, electricity, and architecture.

This bypass-construction project, led jointly by Morgan Est and the VINCI Group, was designed to easy the flow of traffic south of Newport. Along with a 9.3-kilometre bypass road, the mandate called for upgrades to existing roads and the construction of a 195-metre bowstring arch bridge spanning the River Usk.
VINCI Construction Grands Projets oversaw design and construction, while VINCI Concessions managed funding, operation, and maintenance.

Construction of this dual rail tunnel below the Pannerdensch Canal was part of the “Betuwe” project, a new rail line designed to convey merchandise between the port of Rotterdam and Holland’s border with Germany. This 160-kilometre line can accommodate container railway cars. The work package assigned to us called for the design and construction of the Pannerdensch tunnel, a 6.3-kilometre structure. The project included construction of a dual bored tunnel 1,620 metres long (8.5 metres in inner diameter), portals and access ramps over a distance of 1,200 metres, and 3.3 kilometres of railway platform made from backfill material. In addition, the Pannerdensch Canal tunnel possesses a special feature: it is equipped with gates (square cofferdams) at either end designed to prevent flooding.

The Eastmain-1 hydroelectric facility is made up of two hydroelectric power stations, a damn and a reservoir on the Eastmain River in Québec. This project was undertaken by the James Bay Energy Company for Hydro-Québec between 2002 and 2012.
Opened in 2007 and located 88 kilometers north of Nemiscau, in the Nord-du-Québec administrative region, the Eastmain-1 power station has an installed capacity of 507 megawatts.
JANIN ATLAS undertook the construction of the temporary Bypass Tunnel for the construction of Eastmain-1.

We were mandated by the Maritime Road Development Corporation to design and build a dual 2-lane, 195-kilometre highway between Longs Creek (Fredericton) and Magnetic Hill (Moncton). Two major engineering structures had to be built for this project: the Jemseg River Bridge spanning 1,150 metres and the St-John River Bridge, with a length of 960 metres. We built 20 interchanges, and no fewer than 28 flyovers. These engineering structures provide routes over the Saint John and Jemseg rivers, Swan Creek Lake, and the Canaan and North rivers.

The Saint-John and Jemseg bridges are major components of the Fredericton Moncton Toll Road project.
The Jemseg River Bridge is the name for two different structures that cross the Jemseg River as part of a highway realignment of Route 2 (Trans-Canada Highway) that opened in October 2001. This project included a 950 metres launched girder bridge, constructed approximately 100 metres upstream from the original structure.
The Saint John River High Level Crossing is a steel girder bridge crossing the Saint John River. Completed in 2001 and opened to the public in October 2002, the bridge carries 4 lanes of the realigned Route 2.
