Summary

  • More than $25 billion in design-and-construction work is now tied to 24 Infrastructure Ontario projects in pre-procurement and active procurement, according to the agency’s June market update.
  • Nineteen additional government-announced projects were listed in early planning, while new entries include an Ontario Provincial Police detachment, an Ontario Place administrative and maintenance complex, and a University Health Network proton beam therapy facility.
  • Three projects reached contract execution: the $1.04 billion new Ontario Science Centre facility, a $198 million Ontario Place parking structure, and the $30 million Stevenson Memorial Hospital Phase 1 redevelopment.
  • Three others advanced from pre-procurement to active procurement, including Oak Valley Health’s $200 million Uxbridge redevelopment, Windsor Regional Hospital’s $100 million diagnostic and treatment block, and a Brockville correctional complex valued at $200 million to $499 million.
  • The update also flagged substantial completion on the Finch West and Eglinton Crosstown LRT lines and tied the pipeline to Ontario’s broader $236 billion capital plan, with IO planning digital-twin use on select projects later this summer.
