Engineering firm McCormick Rankin has received a contract from the provincial government worth close to $400,000 to help fix an underpass east of downtown Ottawa.

The province’s Ministry of Transportation wants to replace many of the structure’s materials, rehabilitate the road’s pavement and modify the area’s traffic signals, according to a notice published in local newspapers.
