The Gateway Connect Joint Venture – comprising CPB Contractors, BMD and Georgiou – has been awarded the $950 million Gateway to Bruce Upgrade.
A Queensland Government initiative, the project aims to improve safety, connectivity and resilience across the Gateway Motorway and Bruce Highway corridors.
The project scope includes new lanes on the Gateway Motorway to increase capacity, improved connections to Bracken Ridge Road and the Deagon Deviation, and upgrades to the motorway curve at Bracken Ridge. Works will also replace the Wyampa Road overpass, deliver staged improvements to the Gateway Motorway, Bruce Highway and Gympie Arterial Road interchange, and introduce new shared active transport pathways. Wildlife protection fencing and underpasses will further support environmental outcomes and safeguard native fauna.

“We are proud to continue our partnership with the Queensland Government and to integrate innovation, technology and expertise in the delivery of this important infrastructure,” he adds. “Our delivery approach and engineering solutions will minimise disruption to travellers and local motorists and create sustainable benefits for decades to come.”
