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 company will be doing the design work on the structure that allows motorists to travel underneath Highway 417 at County Road 7, just south of the Village of Casselman.
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.
