Valley Line Southeast LRT

Stretching 13 km from Millwoods to downtown Edmonton, the Valley Line Southeast LRT was a transformative light rail transit project designed to enhance mobility through the River Valley and into suburban neighbourhoods. This major infrastructure project helped reshape how Edmontonians move through the city.

ISL, as part of the connectEd Transit Partnership, served as the Owner’s Engineer on this public-private partnership (P3) project, leading the civil scope.

Lloydminster Wastewater Treatment Facility

The City of Lloydminster faced a critical mandate to upgrade its Wastewater Treatment Facility to meet federal effluent water quality requirements or risk severe legal and financial penalties. ISL played a pivotal role in guiding the project from initial planning through completion, providing water and wastewater engineering services, project management expertise, and strategic recommendations that shaped the project’s success.

Initially planned as a Design-Build project, ISL recommended transitioning to an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) model to streamline collaboration, manage costs, and accelerate timelines. This approach was instrumental in overcoming funding delays, coordinating multi-jurisdictional approvals, and ensuring continuous facility operations during construction.
