Management of public spaces for urban infrastructure networks

In December 2016, Énergir and the Fédération québécoise des municipalités (FQM) signed an agreement on the coordinated management of public spaces for urban infrastructure networks. In summary, the agreement provides for:

• A lump sum payment for 2% of the value of the work involved in implementing and improving the gas network (projects totalling $1.5 million or less).
• The equitable sharing of costs in relocating gas installations.
• The provision that Énergir undertakes to implement a performance management system for its roadway work, providing for a roadway performance guarantee of four (4) years following completion of the work.
• The provision that, where possible, Énergir undertakes to limit interventions on roadways that have been subject to a major intervention by municipalities within the past five (5) years.
