Government Infrastructure Projects - vote 1820

Government Infrastructure Projects is responsible for managing the government's General Real Estate Portfolio through policy work and program delivery. The program oversees real estate management activities of the Ontario Infrastructure and Lands Corporation (Infrastructure Ontario) to implement real estate strategies, portfolio planning, acquisition and disposal of surplus properties, and capital planning. The ministry's Contaminated Sites Plan, the Forfeited Corporate Property Program, and the Transmission Corridor Program are managed by this program.

The program is also responsible for optimizing the province's office real estate and driving workplace transformation to reduce costs and get the greatest value from public sector real estate assets of government, agencies, and the Broader Public Sector. This is achieved through better management of realty assets and service delivery, by eliminating costly third party leased office space, and by re-shaping how it uses office space where the Ontario Public Service works to deliver the best outcomes and services for Ontarians. Major realty projects are delivered through this program, including the Macdonald Block reconstruction and Whitney Block rehabilitation.
