The Gateway Connect Joint Venture (GCJV) has been awarded the AUD $950 Million Gateway to Bruce Highway Upgrade (G2BU) Project.
The Gateway to Bruce Upgrade (G2BU) will tackle long-standing congestion and safety issues on one of North Brisbane’s busiest transport corridors.
The project combines the delivery of the $1 billion Gateway Motorway, Bracken Ridge to Pine River upgrade and the $948 million Bruce Highway (Brisbane – Gympie) Gateway Motorway to Dohles Rocks Road upgrade (Stage 1).
These works are jointly funded, with the Australian Government investing more than $1.5 billion and the Queensland Government investing $389.6 million.
The upgrade involves providing additional lanes on the Gateway Motorway, improving the motorway curve at Bracken Ridge and upgrades to the Bruce Highway interchange with the Gateway Motorway and Gympie Arterial Road, south of the Pine River.
The contract has been awarded to Gateway Connect Joint Venture (GCJV) – a partnership between CPB, BMD and Georgiou, with designers GHD and BG&E.
With significant population growth driving increased travel demand, traffic volumes through this corridor are expected to rise by around 50 per cent by 2041.
Currently, around 160,000 vehicles travel daily between the Moreton Bay Region and north Brisbane via the Gateway Motorway, Bruce Highway and Gympie Arterial Road.
Georgiou’s General Manager – QLD, Sean Donald said “This project demonstrates what can be achieved when innovation, collaboration and commitment align. Through the ECI phase, our team worked closely with DTMR to refine a solution that delivers long-term benefits for the community whilst also incorporating resilience, and strong sustainability outcomes.”
BMD Chief Executive Officer Scott Power said the project represents another milestone in BMD’s proud history of partnering with the Queensland Government to deliver infrastructure that strengthens communities.
“BMD brings more than four decades of experience in delivering large-scale road and bridge projects that connect communities and strengthen the state’s infrastructure. As an Australian-owned contractor, we are committed to creating long-term value through quality project outcomes and engaging local industry to support regional growth.
“This project will transform a critical corridor to and from Brisbane, improving capacity, easing congestion and enhancing safety for motorists, while helping to shape South East Queensland ahead of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games and beyond.”
