The acquisition signals Parson’s intent to expand its geographic footprint in transportation, one of the corporation’s four key market areas.
“In addition to increasing our presence in Canada and other key strategic geographies in the world, the acquisition of Delcan continues the progression of our corporate objectives through the expansion of our transportation and infrastructure business lines and our suite of technology offerings,” said Chuck Harrington, Parsons chairman and CEO.
Over its 60-year history, Delcan has been providing transportation services within the rail and transit, road and highway, structures, water, freight, and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) markets.
