With the slowdown of railway construction, highway construction was another experience to be added to the list. The company worked on many of the major highways throughout British Columbia including the Trans- Canada Highway and the Coquihalla Highway.
In the late 80’s the company also got into mining when it was awarded a contract with Domtar Gypsum which is now known as Georgia Pacific. As the 90’s approached, the company was back into forestry work and operating the gypsum mine.
In the last 15 years, Speers has been involved in the construction of 10 Run of the River Hydro projects, more CPR double tracking, the reconstruction of a dam in Southern Alberta, and right in our backyard the development of Revelstoke Mountain Resort.
The many years of experience has brought Speers into the new millennium as a well- rounded company known for its outstanding performance.
