Civil Infrastructure

Project Types

From neighbourhood street renewal to development servicing, we design the roads, underground infrastructure, grading and drainage systems that shape a complete civil project.

Project Types

Roads, underground services and site works.

Our work spans street corridors, watermain and sewer systems, drainage, grading and development sites. The project types below outline the infrastructure we design and the technical deliverables that support each assignment.

Road Reconstruction & Corridor Renewal

Road reconstruction and corridor renewal projects require careful consideration of both surface and underground infrastructure. We bring together roadway, drainage, buried services, sidewalks and utility requirements, with attention to access, property impacts, constructability and construction staging.

Typical Scope

  • Full-depth road reconstruction or rural-to-urban conversion
  • Road grading, curb and gutter, sidewalks and active transportation
  • Storm drainage improvements and roadside ditches
  • Utility coordination, property impacts and construction staging

What We Prepare

  • Base plans and plan-profile drawings
  • Road geometry, grading and drainage design
  • Cross-sections, details and restoration limits
  • Quantities, cost estimate and tender-ready drawings

Watermain, Sanitary & Storm Infrastructure

Watermain, sanitary and storm projects require careful coordination with existing infrastructure, utility constraints and site conditions. We develop pipe alignments, connections and crossings with consideration for hydraulic requirements, constructability and surface restoration.

Typical Scope

  • Watermain replacement, extension and looping
  • Sanitary sewer replacement, upsizing and trunk infrastructure
  • Storm sewer systems, outlets and drainage improvements
  • Connections, crossings, appurtenances and utility conflicts

What We Prepare

  • Plan and profile drawings
  • Pipe sizing, slopes, cover and connection design
  • Chambers, maintenance holes, valves and details
  • Quantities, cost estimates and restoration requirements

Site Development & Municipal Approvals

We develop grading, drainage and servicing designs that support practical site development and integration with municipal infrastructure. Our work considers servicing connections, municipal requirements and the approvals needed to move a project through design review and into construction.

Typical Scope

  • Site servicing connections and internal networks
  • Lot and site grading, including accessible routes
  • Stormwater management and outlet design
  • Utility coordination, phasing and municipal submissions

What We Prepare

  • Site servicing, grading and drainage plans
  • Stormwater management reports and calculations
  • Erosion and sediment control and restoration plans
  • Submission responses and construction revisions

Grading, Drainage & Earthworks

Grading and drainage have a direct impact on how a site functions. We develop grading plans that consider overland flow, adjacent properties, access requirements, earthworks quantities and overall site constructability.

Typical Scope

  • Preliminary grading and drainage concepts
  • Cut/fill balance and material movement
  • Overland flow routes and outlet coordination
  • Phasing, access and constructability

What We Prepare

  • Digital terrain and grading models
  • Earthwork quantities and material summaries
  • Constraint and option comparisons
  • Design-development and tender quantities

Project Delivery Services

Support beyond the design.

We can remain involved through tendering and construction, or work alongside your existing team to provide support at specific stages of the project.
