VINCI Secures €144 Million Hydraulic Contract in Jamaica

VINCI Construction Grands Projets has been awarded a major contract as part of Jamaica's Western Water Resilience Programme. This €144 million design-build project involves creating 68 km of drinking water pipelines. The initiative seeks to enhance climate resilience in the northwest of the country, a region experiencing population growth and expansion in tourism and manufacturing industries.

The project will encompass 130 km alongside existing roads and sensitive zones, employing durable materials for a network life exceeding 50 years. Scheduled over 36 months, the project will engage over 100 workers, closely collaborating with Jamaica's National Environment and Planning Agency to minimize environmental impacts.

VINCI has been present in Jamaica since 1999, recently aiding in emergency repairs post-Hurricane Melissa and advancing water infrastructure projects.
