Bird announces $175M in contracts

Bird Construction Inc. is boasting it has recently been awarded $175 million in new civil and building construction contracts across Canada.

The projects are expected to begin this fall with completion dates into 2015. The contracts will be added to Bird’s backlog in the third quarter of 2013.

Tim Talbott, president and CEO of Bird Construction, noted this recent round of contract awards comes on the heels of the company’s announcement of more than $100 million in contracts in July.

“These new projects demonstrate Bird’s success in securing construction contracts in a competitive marketplace throughout our operating areas, which will contribute to our results during their execution,” he said.
