From the Beehive E128 - Megasite Wrapped 2025

2025 has been anything but quiet at Yarmouth Yards.

In this update, we’re taking a look back at the major milestones achieved this year across St. Thomas’ largest industrial development project—and why each one matters for the future of our community.

From the start of major construction to critical infrastructure coming online, it’s been a year defined by momentum. In this video, you’ll hear about:
🎉PowerCo officially breaking ground, with foundations already in place and construction moving steadily forward
🎉The announcement and groundbreaking of Vianode, adding another significant investment to Yarmouth Yards 
🎉Completion and commissioning of the new water booster station, supporting high-pressure industrial water and broader city needs
🎉Ongoing Highway 3 expansion work led by the Ministry of Transportation
🎉The internal road and servicing network reaching approximately 70% completion
🎉Stormwater management ponds—northwest, southeast, and the Uber Pond—now substantially complete (Learn more about Stormwater Management in St. Thomas)
🎉The completed rail spur and bridge, and the start of the new shunting yard
🎉Progress on key wastewater infrastructure, including the YSPS pumping station
🎉We also take a moment to recognize the many partners, contractors, engineers, and public agencies whose work has helped move these projects forward.
