South East Queensland’s largest road infrastructure project

The Coomera Connector is South East Queensland’s largest road infrastructure project, and will improve how we move around our neighbourhoods. The $2.16 billion Stage 1 project, between Coomera and Nerang, is jointly funded (50:50) by the Australian Government and Queensland Government.

The Stage 1 Central package from Helensvale to Molendinar is currently in the design phase.

In January 2023, Fulton Hogan Hull McIlwain Joint Venture (FHHMJV) was awarded an early works contract to progress the design and commence early works for Stage 1 Central. Major construction is expected to start in early 2024.

Coomera Connector Stage 1 will progressively open to traffic in sections from late 2025, weather and site conditions permitting, and will be completed by 2027.

Enhancing Your Career Journey: The Importance of a Readable CV

In today’s competitive job market, having a standout CV is essential for capturing the attention of potential employers. However, many job seekers underestimate the importance of readability in their CVs, often focusing solely on content rather than presentation. At IEPro Recruitment, we understand the significance of a well-formatted CV, especially in industries like civil infrastructure, where attention to detail is paramount.

Why Readability Matters

  1. First Impressions: Your CV is often the first point of contact between you and a potential employer. A cluttered or difficult-to-read CV can leave a negative impression, regardless of your qualifications and experience.
  2. Highlighting Key Information: Recruiters and hiring managers typically spend only a few seconds scanning each CV. A well-organized and readable CV makes it easier for them to quickly identify your skills, experience, and qualifications.
  3. Demonstrating Attention to Detail: In industries like civil infrastructure, where precision and accuracy are crucial, a well-formatted CV showcases your attention to detail. Employers are more likely to trust candidates who present themselves professionally from the outset.

Exciting Times Ahead: $164M Princes Highway Project Begins

Construction is set to commence in the coming weeks on the Jervis Bay Road Intersection Project at the intersection of the Princes Highway and Jervis Bay Road in Falls Creek, marking a significant milestone for the New South Wales south coast road corridor.

The Federal Government has allocated $100 million towards the project, with the remaining $64 million to be provided by the New South Wales Government.

This initiative is part of a $2.55 billion program of jointly funded investments in the Princes Highway, including the Milton Ulladulla Bypass corridor.

Following the commencement of the new Nowra Bridge project, this development becomes the second within the corridor to enter the construction phase.

The project aims to deliver a grade-separated flyover-style intersection, incorporating an overpass across the Princes Highway, complemented by roundabouts on each side of Jervis Bay Road to facilitate safer and smoother connections.

Upon completion, the upgrade will encompass expanding the Princes Highway to two lanes in each direction on the approaches to the intersection, extending entry and exit lanes, and ensuring free-flowing access to the highway for both northbound and southbound traffic.

The intersection experiences the highest volume of vehicle movements on the Princes Highway between Nowra and the Victorian border. Over the past five years, it has been the site of 15 crashes, resulting in six serious injuries.

The enhancement is anticipated to create approximately 110 jobs during the construction phase, followed by enduring safety and efficiency benefits for the community.

To minimize disruptions to residents, the construction schedule has been revised to mitigate the impacts of out-of-hours work.

Contractor SRG Global Civil will oversee the project, with an expected completion timeframe of up to four years, subject to weather conditions.

Federal Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government, Catherine King, emphasized the significance of commencing major work on the second project for the Princes Highway corridor, underscoring the total joint investment of $2.55 billion in the south coast.

Premier of New South Wales, Chris Minns, expressed confidence that the project will expedite travel for locals and tourists to destinations like Huskisson, Vincentia, and Jervis Bay, enhancing safety along the way.

Federal Minister for Regional Development, Local Government and Territories, Kristy McBain, reiterated the Federal Government’s commitment to enhancing infrastructure like the Princes Highway, emphasizing its importance in improving access to popular destinations on the south coast.

New South Wales Minister for Regional Transport and Roads, Jenny Aitchison, affirmed the project’s overdue nature and its vital importance to local communities, businesses, tourists, and freight operators, expressing gratitude for the collaboration and support received.

Rockhampton Ring Road Secures $1.7 Billion in Government Funding

The Federal and Queensland Governments are jointly funding the construction of the $1.73 billion Rockhampton Ring Road, which is set to open up new travel routes to critical services as well as key leisure, retail, education and defence facilities.

The commitment will deliver the full 17.4 km Rockhampton Ring Road, with an increased Australian Government commitment of $1.2 billion and an increased Queensland Government commitment to $530 million.

This project will increase connections to key precincts in the city and improve access, travel times to vital services including the hospital and emergency services, and road safety.

The Federal Government has said that the Rockhampton Ring Road project is a once in a lifetime opportunity to build capability within the regional workforce, with an extended pipeline of road infrastructure construction that provides opportunities for apprentices and trainees, engineers and technical services to be engaged on this significant infrastructure build.

Construction on the first $280 million package of works started in November 2023.

Both contractor joint ventures mobilised to site in November to start construction at key work locations in Parkhurst and on Rockhampton-Ridgelands Road in West Rockhampton.

Construction on this phase of the Rockhampton Ring Road is expected to take up to two years to complete.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said that in late 2023 the Federal and Queensland Governments confirmed construction would be underway on the Rockhampton Ring Road by the end of the year.

“And here we are, two months into construction to deliver this essential infrastructure project for Central Queensland,” Mr Albanese said. 

“This significant investment by the Federal and Queensland Governments is a long-term, visionary project for Queensland’s biggest highway, the lifeline for the state of Queensland that will unlock future economic growth, build flood resilience, reduce travel times, improve road safety and support jobs.”

Queensland Premier, Steven Miles, said that the Rockhampton Ring Road will be a critical new artery for central Queensland and the broader Bruce Highway.

“It means a safer and quicker drive for locals and more productive travel for our transport sector, moving freight around the state,” Mr Miles said. 

“When complete, big trucks will avoid 19 sets of traffic lights through the middle of Rockhampton, which has long been regarded as the pinch point for travel on the Bruce Highway. That is critical for Queensland’s economic growth.

“I’m proud that our governments have come together to fully fund the Rockhampton Ring Road – to create jobs, local supply chain opportunities, and better connections for the region.”

Federal Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government, Catherine King, said that the Federal Government’s commitment to fund and deliver the project ensures that Rockhampton and the central Queensland region can maximise both the economic and human benefit from the project, building capability and skills in the region.

“I am delighted that this will support industries and keep freight moving throughout Queensland,” Ms King said. 

Queensland Minister for Transport and Main Roads, Bart Mellish, said that finalising the agreement between the Federal and Queensland Governments to fund the full cost of the Rockhampton Ring Road is testament to the commitment the State Government has to regional Queensland.

“The Rockhampton Ring Road will transform Rockhampton,” Mr Mellish said. 

“Increased connections to key precincts in the city will improve access and travel times to critical services including the hospital and emergency services, open up new travel routes for the defence services, the leisure, retail and education precincts, and move through-freight out of the city, decreasing conflicts between heavy vehicles and commuter traffic, improving road safety and the ambience of the city.”
