Engineering Solutions

Infrastructure United is a subsidiary of the well-established engineering firm Civil ArSa Engineering, which has provided consulting services to the Ministry of Transportation Ontario and municipalities for nearly two decades.

In response to emerging limitations and competitive factors, Infrastructure United became independently incorporated, with full support from Civil ArSa. This transition allowed Infrastructure United to expand its service offerings, not just within Canada but globally, further enriching the company’s portfolio and its capacity to deliver innovative infrastructure solutions worldwide.

Infrastructure United is a professional services firm offering strategic advisory, management consultancy and engineering solutions across the infrastructure sectors of Transportation, Building Science, and Utilities.
