Abstract

Anthony Henday Drive (AHD) in the City of Edmonton is an outer ring road currently under development around the City's southern limits. A design-build-finance-operate (DBFO) team was formed named Access Roads Edmonton Ltd. (AREL). The team, led by ABN-AMRO Bank as the Developer with PCL Construction Management Inc. as the Design Build Contractor and TSMI as the Operator, was awarded the $493 million DBFO Contract for the southeast portion of Edmonton's Anthony Henday Ring Road in 2005. MMM Group (MMM) led the design team for the assignment that included Stantec Consulting Ltd., Golder Associates Ltd. and Applied Research Associates. This paper will discuss the use of Value Engineering (VE) in the pursuit and design process; how the VE process affords enhanced safety through the safety oversight process; the application of enhanced geometric design standards in the P3 process; and the innovation arising from the VE and the P3 process. For the covering abstract of this conference see ITRD number E216597.
