AECOM has been selected by Peel Region to provide program management services for the municipality’s Queen Street Housing Enabling Infrastructure Program (HEIP).

The initiative aims to build the wastewater and water linear infrastructure required to support housing development in the region.

“We are proud to partner with Peel Region on this groundbreaking program, accelerating infrastructure delivery while safeguarding the public and advancing more sustainable cities,” said Drew Jeter, chief executive of AECOM’s Program Management global business line. “Our program management capabilities will ensure innovative solutions that meet the Region’s goals and set a new standard for infrastructure delivery, while supporting the long-term health and vitality of the community.”

AECOM’s scope of work for the Queen Street HEIP includes planning, designing, and implementing new water and wastewater systems to ensure residents have safe and reliable drinking water and wastewater services. 

AECOM’s most recent work in the region includes the expansion of the Clarkson Water Resource Recovery Facility, which aims to increase capacity at the facility to accommodate the area’s growing population as well as multiple projects supporting drinking water treatment at the Arthur P. Kennedy and Lorne Park water treatment plants.
