Turner Construction Company (Turner) has announced that Turner and Clark Builders have been selected to build US$73 million student housing at the University of Fraser Valley in British Columbia, Canada.

The public-private partnership (PPP) project involves building a 225,000 sq student housing at the University of Fraser Valley in British Columbia, Canada. The six-story student housing will provide 398 beds on the University’s Abbotsford and will include campus, lounges, shared kitchens, study, and mixed-use and cultural space. The accommodation will be delivered through the Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) method which results in increased efficiency and engagement of all project participants through all phases of design, fabrication and construction. The construction team of both companies will also handle modularization and pre-fabrication.

The construction of the facility is planned to begin in 2023 and to be put into operation in autumn 2024.
