Last week, Dragados Canada hosted an insightful lessons learned session focused on LRT construction projects, bringing together personnel from key projects like the Eglington Crosstown LRT (Toronto), Finch West LRT (Toronto), Purple Line (Maryland), Réseau express métropolitain (REM Montreal), along with our Precontracts Department in Toronto. We delved into the nuances of design, construction, and operation, garnering invaluable insights for future endeavors. The collaborative atmosphere was palpable, with all participants acknowledging the session’s immense value. These lessons learned will be instrumental in enhancing our approach not only to LRT projects but also dams, ports, bridges, and more, giving Dragados Canada a competitive edge in delivering exceptional results to our clients by providing real examples of both successful strategies and challenges in previous cases. Moving forward, we are committed to continuing this knowledge-sharing approach across various project types, ensuring transparency and excellence every step of the way. A big thank you to all participants for their contributions and dedication to continuous improvement. Here’s to many more successful projects ahead!
