The M4, M5 and M6 contracts are part of the Highways England Smart Motorway Programme (SMP), which involves converting sections of the M5 between junctions 4a and 6 (covering more than 18km), the M4 between junctions 3 and 12 (51km) and the M6 between junctions 2 and 4 (22km) into smart motorway by using the hard shoulder. Highways England, the authority responsible for England’s motorways, awarded the contracts to a joint venture comprising VINCI Construction Grands Projets, VINCI Construction UK and Balfour Beatty.
The Link Alliance consortium, leaded by VINCI Construction Grands Projets, is in charge of carrying out three lots on this project.
Lot 3 covers the design and construction of a 3.45 km extension of a railway line, including 3.2 km of tunnel, to connect the existing stations of Britomart and Mount Eden. On the route, 3 new stations will be built, including 2 underground.

The project includes construction design, civil works, supply of materials and pumping equipment, assembly, testing and plant commissioning.
Doubling the Copenhagen metro’s capacity – that’s the target for the network-extension programme in the Danish capital on which VINCI Construction Grands Projets is deploying its expertise in underground works. Our consortium was awarded the design-build contract for the Copenhagen metro’s fourth line. Works include: two tunnels each 4.4 km long (bored using earth-pressure TBMs), civil engineering for five underground stations and switching shafts, sub-trades, electrical and mechanical systems, architectural interior works for the stations, and ventilation in the tunnels.
This is a project to renovate the Chamkar Mon water treatment plant, located in the heart of the Cambodian capital. After the demolition of the existing plant, a new one was designed and built to increase the daily production capacity from 20,000 m3 to 52,000 m3.
The Grand Paris Express project will transform daily life for thousands of people living in Île-de-France from as early as 2024 to 2030 as VINCI Construction Grands Projets puts its expertise in underground infrastructure and large-scale project management to work for this vast initiative to enhance mobility in Île-de-France. In February 2018, we were awarded Lot GC02 for Line 14 South, which will link Olympiades station (in Paris’s 18th arrondissement) to Orly Airport.
The project, which has been awarded to the COMOL5 consortium, calls for construction of an expressway connecting the cities of Katwijk (via A44) and Leiden (on A4). On this project, the winning consortium will have to rebuild the motorway junction at Leiden West, build a new 4-km roadway (N434) that includes a 2.2-km tunnel segment, widen motorway sections totalling 12 km in length, and make required adjustments on motorways A4 and A44. The contract also calls for maintenance of the new infrastructure for 15 years.
The project to expand the port in Kingston will allow Jamaica to remain competitive in the region’s maritime trade sector following the launch of new canal locks in Panama. Under this EPC contract, works will be carried out by VINCI Construction Grands Projets and EMCC (VINCI Construction) in consortium with the Belgian dredging company, Jan de Nul. This consortium was selected by CMA CGM, a major player in the global maritime transport industry and the concession-holder of the port of Kingston since July 1, 2016. The project calls for the rehabilitation, reinforcement, and upgrade to seismic standards of 1,200 metres of docks as well as dredging operations in the access channel and port of Kingston.
