The $26 Billion Railway: Sharing Experiences on Complex Infrastructure Projects
May 8, 2017 @ 9:00 am - 10:30 am
Event Navigation
In partnership with:
The UK’s Department for International Trade (DIT) and the Infrastructure Lab are pleased to be able to host Sir Terry Morgan, Chairman, Crossrail. The Crossrail project is Europe’s largest infrastructure project, and continues to be delivered on time and on budget as it approaches its closing stages. Sir Terry will share insight on how Crossrail was set up, how the project is being delivered and overcoming challenges from unexploded World War Two bombs to Black Death pits. Given the scale of investment in Canada’s infrastructure, particularly around public transit we will delve into what learnings can be shared from both sides of the Atlantic on delivering major, complex projects on time and within budget.
This event is at capacity, if you have any questions about this event or future initiatives please email jallen@infrastructurelab.com
