Mainroad Group

Mainroad History

Mainroad Contracting” was established in 1988 when the provincial government privatized road and bridge maintenance services in the province of British Columbia. A motivated group of former provincial employees banded together to pool their knowledge, skills, and resources to form what would become one of the most successful roadway maintenance companies in Western Canada. Mainroad is also unique within the industry as a 100% employee owned company which translates to a team effort throughout.

Through business expansions, ventures, and acquisitions, Mainroad Group has expanded its operations to include operating companies throughout both British Columbia and Alberta.
