Austin Works Yard Renewal Project

Austin Works Yard, located at 500 Mariner Way, is the City of Coquitlam’s primary public works operations centre and currently houses a number of critical municipal departments and services. The Yard is near its operational capacity and key facilities have reached the end of their useful life and require replacement.

Austin Works Yard Renewal

To meet the long-term service needs of Coquitlam, the Austin Works Yard is undergoing a number of improvements within the facility’s lot boundary:

  • Construction of a new Fleet Maintenance and Workshop Building;
  • Expansion of the western portion of the existing Works Yard and associated bulk storage to the north and west;
  • Conversion of vacated workshop spaces within the Water Sewer Utility Building into administrative spaces;
  • Conversion of the existing Fleet Maintenance and Auxiliary Building to storage space and paving of gravel parking areas; and
  • Realignment of the public trails that pass within the Austin Works Yard property to Mundy Park.
