Cardinal Concrete has been fortunate enough to be a part of many unique and interesting projects throughout the Sea to Sky corridor during our over 40 year history.

We were the concrete supplier for the Whistler Sliding Centre, the Whistler Olympic Park and portions of the Sea to Sky Highway upgrade project. We were also a part of the world record holding Peak to Peak Gondola, which links Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains together. Most recently, we supplied concrete to the new Sea to Sky Gondola in Squamish.
