Construction of
an $88-million facility
for The Royal Canadian Dragoons
is taking shape
at Base Petawawa.
The new building will bring
together logistics,
maintenance, and transportation
teams from seven locations,
increasing collaboration
and efficiency.
It will feature:
office and storage space,
loading bays, classrooms,
conference rooms,
a vehicle training simulator,
and a 30-vehicle maintenance bay
for the Regiment's LAV 6.0s
and TAPVs.
Designed with a focus
on environmental responsibility,
the facility will generate
fewer greenhouse gas emissions,
and save about $4.6 million in
operating costs over 40 years.
The Dragoons will call
their modern, green
and functional workplace
home in fall 2021.
