Four shortlisted teams have been invited to respond to a request for proposals (RFP) to deliver the Union Station Enhancement Project. Union Station is the major transit hub in the City of Toronto. Infrastructure upgrades, such as the construction of a new platform and the development of a new concourse area below the platform will further help to accommodate increased capacity as part of the planned expansion of GO Transit rail service. The estimated project cost is CAD 200-499 million (USD 150-374 million).

Teams were selected based on criteria in the request for qualifications (RFQ) phase, including their team composition, experience in collaborative project delivery, health and safety, and past project examples.

The shortlisted teams are:

OnTrack Alliance
Constructor: Kiewit and Alberici
Design: WSP

GTA Alliance
Constructor: EllisDon and Keltbray
Design: AECOM, Zeilder and Stephenson Engineering

OneUnion Alliance
Constructor: Aecon, Modern Niagara and PNR RailWorks
Design: Mott MacDonald and Systra

Union Gateway Alliance
Constructor: Dragados
Design: Parson and Hatch

Teams will now begin the RFP process where they will be evaluated on their approach, collaborative behaviours and final fees. The team with the highest score will be selected to enter into an Alliance Development Agreement with Metrolinx and Infrastructure Ontario to submit a proposal to deliver the Union Station Enhancement Project. This will include collaborating in the design, finalizing the Target Outturn Cost and identifying and managing project risks.

A successful bidder is expected to be announced in summer 2020.
