Kelson is pleased to announce that it will be providing mechanical services on the new Thunder Bay Correctional Complex (“TBCC”). The facility will be one of the largest and most technologically advanced infrastructure projects ever built in Ontario. The new facility will update automation and technology to address issues of health, safety and security. This includes the introduction of efficiencies related to design, technology, and the use of space, specifically:
-Behavioural and Mental Health housing options;
-Improved programming and health care services in units;
-Indigenous design and artifacts; and
-Better access to natural light and outdoor spaces.
The 345 bed correctional facility will target Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver certification, with a focus on energy efficiency, healthy indoor environments and reduced greenhouse gas. As a landmark project in correctional services throughout the world, the TBCC will bring innovative and unique solutions while replacing two aged facilities.
