The Result
A satisfied client and another quality project completed. The successful completion of a project of this size under the pressure of working in an active site is an excellent example that A&B Rail Services project management expertise, capabilities, and commitment to Doing It Right. Pembina puts a great emphasis on safety and risk management, therefore things do not happen unless all aspects of safety are identified. As safety is A&B Rail Services’ number one priority, this client’s expectations are easily met by our expertly trained crews backed by any required equipment and materials all on hand. Our team worked closely with Pembina’s civil contractor Noyen Construction and their engineering group CIMA+. Through several design changes, phasing and weather‐related grade turnover delays, the project team managed to maximize productivity while minimizing all additional project costs on schedule. For A&B Rail Services, it means another satisfied customer in our 50-year journey to become Canada’s largest, most-experienced and most sought-after rail services company.
