Step 1 of a Design and build contract of a new passenger terminal with a surface area of approximately 40,000 m2 offering 8 new boarding bridges and airport services such as luggage sorting.

La Société des grands projets ha adjudicado al consorcio liderado por VINCI Construction Grands Projets el contrato de realización del tramo aéreo de la línea 18 del Grand Paris Express, de 7,4 km de longitud, que unirá Massy-Palaiseau con la futura estación CEA Saint-Aubin. La puesta en servicio está prevista para el 2026.

For the completion of the Lyon-Turin line, the work package awarded by the public client Tunnel Euralpin Lyon Turin (TELT) covers preparatory work on the future safety site at Modane, which is located at the centre of the base tunnel linking the international railway stations of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne (France) and Susa (Italy) over a distance of 57 km.

Package 5A includes the construction of 4 ventilation shafts, each 500 metres long, at the foot of which 7 large caverns and 3 kms of galleries will be built, in the municipality of Avrieux; it represents a key stage in the project. Starting at the end of 2020 using an innovative technique known as raise-boring, the project took3 years and involved up to 450 people.

The Société des grands projets has allocated the construction contract for the first section of line 18 of the Grand Paris Express, which will connect Orly airport to Palaiseau, to a consortium of companies controlled by VINCI Construction Grands Projets. The contract relates to the digging of 11.8 km of tunnels, the construction of three stations, 13 ancillary structures along with 850 linear metres of open and covered trenches. This first section will come into service in 2026 and 2027. 

The contract relates to the renovation and extension of the airport infrastructure, including the construction in two phases of a 40,000 m² extension to the existing passenger terminal and the renovation of 15,000 m² (including the addition of 11 new boarding bridges). The works also include: the construction of an additional runway to enable the existing runway to be closed for complete renovation, as well as the construction of new taxiways, aircraft parking areas, a number of electrical substations, car parks and a section of access road.

The Balfour Beatty VINCI SYSTRA HS2 joint venture announced its formal contract award for the management of the construction and delivery of HS2’s Old Oak Common station, in North West London, in September 2019. The joint venture will be responsible for the final design, construction and commissioning of Old Oak Common station, delivering 6 underground platforms and 8 platforms on the adjacent Great Western Main Line. Once completed, HS2’s new Old Oak Common station will become the UK’s best-connected rail station, providing direct services to three major airports and eight of Britain’s ten largest cities.

 As one of the most significant construction projects in Great Britain for decades, HS2 will act as a catalyst for growth, boosting growth in the Midlands and North. Phase 1 for these contracts had been awarded in July 2017 for the design of the West Midlands area, where more than 500 engineers and technicians, including the joint venture’s designers, worked successfully to enable the project to switch from design to construction. The construction contract (phase 2) for HS2s main civil engineering works packages Lots N1 and N2 was awarded to the Balfour Beatty VINCI (BBV) joint venture in April 2020. The scope of works for these packages comprise extensive earthworks, ground engineering, viaducts and tunnels along a 90 km stretch between the Long Itchington Wood Green tunnel in the south to the West Coast Main Line tie-in near Litchfield in the north with a major junction into central Birmingham at Curzon Street.

The project involves designing and building 5.3km of sea viaducts and new tunnels as well as widening 14.5km of existing roads. As part of the new component, the consortium will excavate two 2.4km-long tunnels between two artificial islands, linked to the mainland by two sea viaducts measuring 1km and 1.9km. The existing component will include demolition, reconstruction and widening of 14.5km of road, with two additional traffic lanes being created in each direction.

The contract involves the design, construction and financing of 27.5km of infrastructure for a light-rail transit (LRT) system in order to extend the Confederation Line to the west and east of the city of Ottawa.
It includes the construction of 4km of rail in cut-and-cover tunnels, 20 engineering structures, 16 stations, of which one underground and one elevated, and a maintenance centre. It also covers the delivery of associated systems.

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.
