Finch West LRT Project Wins Silver

CCPPP’s 2018 National Awards for Innovation and Excellence

Happy November everyone!!

Hard to believe that there are only two more months left of 2018. We don’t know about you, but this past year has flown by for the staff here at DPM.

2018 has brought about many memorable projects and milestones, and in October we added a new achievement to our roster. We are extremely proud and delighted to announce that the Finch West LRT project won Silver for Project Financing in CCPPP’s 2018 National Awards for Innovation and Excellence in P3s.

Presented by The Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships (CCPPP) since 1998, the prestigious award will be handed out at CCPPP’s 26th annual conference – P3 2018 – on Monday, November 5 in Toronto at the Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel.

The awards committee found that the project has “clear benefits to the community and economy,” noting the consortium is developing an apprenticeship plan to ensure historically disadvantaged groups are involved in constructing the line.

“CCPPP and its members congratulate the team involved in the Finch West LRT project on winning silver for project financing in the 2018 National Awards for Innovation and Excellence in Public-Private Partnerships,” said Mark Romoff, president and CEO of CCPPP.

We want to extend a big congratulations to the rest of the winners as well as our team members!

We cannot wait to see what the rest of this year brings.
