Le Droit
AI Article Summary
The City of Gatineau informed its municipal council that it must revise plans for the western sports complex due to technical issues with the soil's load-bearing capacity. This leads to the cancellation of the project to build a 500-space multi-level parking facility. The land was purchased in 2019 for 9.87 million and is located along the boulevard du Plateau.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
This project highlights how soil issues can significantly affect municipal construction plans, leading to costly modifications or delays. For Quebec builders, this means that conducting thorough soil studies before purchasing land is crucial to avoid such setbacks. It may also influence the costs and financing of future municipal projects.
