Innovation, Collaboration Help WSP in Canada Capture Awards at 2024 ACEC-NB Gala

Awards recognize work on Petitcodiac Estuary, Grand Bay-Westfield road network.

WSP in Canada has received a Power of Collaboration award and an Engineering Excellence award at the annual Association of Canadian Engineering Companies-New Brunswick (ACEC-NB) Awards Gala in Fredericton.

Honouring the best and brightest of the engineering sector in the province, the awards recognize the people and projects that are transforming the landscape in New Brunswick.

The Grand Bay-Westfield winter road maintenance project received an Engineering Excellence Award. The project involved the introduction of an innovative solution by the company’s Weather and Climate Impacts team which allowed for accurate weather forecasting in the community, helping them better budget the use of resources to keep roads safe for drivers during the harshest conditions.

The Petitcodiac River Causeway Modification project received the Power of Collaboration award. The award is presented annually to “… the project team that best exemplifies the collaboration between owner/ architect/ engineer/ contractor to produce engineering achievements that exhibit excellence in their fields.” The Project, a more than 20-year commitment, involved the restoration of estuarine fish passage and socio-environmental conditions for the 2,000 km2 Petitcodiac River watershed.
