Last updated: November 2024
Arup, a leading sustainable development consultancy, has opened an office in Ottawa. The global design, advisory and engineering firm has had a presence in Canada for almost a quarter century, with three other offices in Toronto, Montreal, and Calgary. Arup’s infrastructure, building, advisory, climate and sustainability, digital, and planning expertise is recognized worldwide.
Arup has worked in the Ottawa region since the firm’s arrival in Canada in 2000, starting with planning and design work for the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. Since then, Arup has delivered 26 projects in the National Capital Region (NCR), including the Ottawa VIA Rail Station Platform Renewal Project and many others. The group continues to work with public and private clients in the NCR to deliver design and services in the transportation, buildings, energy, and water sectors with a focus on achieving sustainability and net-zero goals.
Arup’s initial focus for the Ottawa practice under the helm of its new office leader Gareth Jones will include the decarbonization and renovation of civic buildings, advisory services and design for bus rapid transit and light rail transit projects across the NCR.
The opening of our new office in Ottawa demonstrates Arup’s commitment to serving the seat of the Canadian Federal Government and its surrounding communities. There are exciting opportunities ahead as we’re building on the momentum of our work on the Alexandra Bridge Replacement Project and expanding and diversifying our business in Canada.
