Port Royal Center, Moncton, NB

Project Description
Terrain Group was retained by Emery Stephen Holdings to provide design services for the development of Centre Port Royal Center. The entire development is contained on approximately 9 hectares of land and will consist of both commercial and residential uses. The development is planned in two phases. To date Terrain has completed Phase One of the development. Phase One included engineering design and construction support services for the completion of Lady Ada Blvd, the primary entrance into the development. This will allow for strip malls, offices, restaurants, factory outlet facilities as well as other commercial activities. The construction of the first building – Future Inns – a four star (4*) full service 130-room and suites hotel has begun and plans to be completed by Spring 2006. Phase Two of Centre Port Royal Center will consist of an additional four-storey affordable luxury condominium with 100 units. The final phase will consist of a luxury high-end condominium building with 100 units that will not exceed eight storeys.

Services Provided
Engineering design for underground services included calculation of proposed design peak flows and proposed water demands based on the facilities planned for the development. Site planning and site servicing for individual pads throughout the site was completed. The hotel pad site consists of 2.6 acres (113,256 sq.ft.) and the 130 rooms and suites hotel development will rise up four storeys. The elevation of this site allows for excellent visibility from the Trans-Canada Highway as well as Mapleton Road. Sanitary main sizing, watermain sizing, analysis of stormwater tributary areas, and location and sizing of a new stormwater outfall and piping was also included in the design of Phase One. Engineering services for street design included analysis of traffic signals and turning lanes at the entrance on Mapleton Blvd, and analysis of the surface storm drainage system to ensure conveyance of large stormwater runoffs to the proposed new outfall to the western branch of Halls Creek. Deliverables included construction drawings, specifications and tender package, and an engineering design brief.
