Additionally, Bird Construction will be active in the Aspen Power Station project in Saskatchewan, where its 2NationsBird joint venture has been awarded the foundation and underground utilities work. This 370-megawatt power station is crucial for strengthening renewable power generation in the region, ensuring a reliable energy supply for the future.

Other significant wins include:

  • A multi-year master service agreement within the petrochemical sector

Our proven track record in successfully delivering early works on major industrial projects strategically positions us to pursue full project life cycle opportunities.”

The awarded contracts showcase Bird Construction’s capacity to lead complex and environmentally significant projects, further solidifying its position as a key player in Canada’s construction industry.
