Reflections from Rwanda: Building the Gatongati Bridge with Bridges to Prosperity

A journey of purpose and connection The team’s journey began months before arriving in Kigali. From February to June, they trained, planned and bonded virtually across time zones. Once on the ground, they immersed themselves in Rwanda’s rich cultural context by visiting the Kigali Genocide Memorial and exploring Akagera National Park. These experiences helped the team connect deeply with each other and the community they would serve. Building more than a bridge Over nine days of construction, the team worked side-by-side with B2P staff and local community members to bring the Gatongati Bridge to life. From installing suspension cables and deck panels to painting abutments and handrails, every task was a shared effort. The build was marked by laughter, song and dance with shared moments that transcended language barriers and brought the Jacobs team and local community together. The Jacobs team also had the opportunity to help train the community team, who will maintain the bridge for years to come. The Jacobs team also visited G.S. Nyagisozi Technical Secondary School, where nearly 1,000 students welcomed them with songs and smiles. For many, this was the most memorable moment of the trip—a reminder that the bridge is not just infrastructure, but a pathway to opportunity. Celebrating the inauguration On June 20, under clearing skies after a night of rain, the Gatongati Bridge was officially inaugurated. Local officials, B2P staff, Jacobs teammates and villagers crossed the bridge together, singing in celebration. The team returned home with new perspectives, deeper cultural understanding and

Toronto’s future, flood-protected: Engineering excellence beneath the city

As part of Toronto’s long-term Basement Flooding Protection Plan, the Fairbank Silverthorn Storm Trunk Sewer System (FSSTSS) is a transformative infrastructure project designed to protect more than 4,500 properties from flooding. Now, the project has received a major industry award recognizing the team’s innovative engineering, technical excellence and strong commitment to minimizing disruption in the community. Led by the City of Toronto and the EBC Bessac Joint Venture (EBJV) team, the project’s award-winning phase, Contract 2, involved the construction of a 2.4-kilometer (~1.5 mile)-long, 4.5-meter (~14 foot)-diameter storm sewer tunnel, buried as deep as 45 meters (~147 feet) beneath Toronto. Threading through tight urban corridors with curves as sharp as 120 meters (~393 feet), the tunnel required a highly specialized approach. The team worked with Bessac to develop a custom Earth Pressure Balance Tunnel Boring Machine (EPB TBM) featuring a double-articulated shield and an 18-meter (59-foot) screw conveyor capable of navigating the tunnel’s complex geometry. A defining moment came when the team encountered an unexpected face instability during the construction of a back gallery. With the TBM already on site and the original launch method no longer viable, the team quickly re-engineered the strategy. In just three months, they modified the TBM to launch umbilically — an extraordinary feat that required redesigning the screw conveyor, thrusting system and muck handling operations, all while staying on schedule. The team also introduced a novel logistics system at the 46-meter (~148 foot) deep launch shaft. Using hydraulic rail switches, sliding tables and car
