ACCIONA led the delivery of the of the Bruce Highway upgrade project between Caboolture-Bribie Island Road and Steve Irwin Way (Exit 163) – Contract 1 in Queensland.

The project involved upgrading nearly 6 kilometres of the Bruce Highway north of Brisbane from four to six lanes. The project was aimed at reducing congestion and improving flood immunity along this section of highway.

As the principal contractor, ACCIONA was responsible for delivering significant improvements to this crucial transportation corridor, including demolition and reconstruction of four bridges over King Johns and Lagoon Creeks; upgrading key interchanges at Caboolture-Bribie Island Road, D’Aguilar Highway and Pumicestone Road; realignment of adjacent service roads; and installation of Smart Motorway technologies.

The Bruce Highway is a key route for commuters, freight, and tourist traffic, making this upgrade essential for enhancing safety, capacity, and overall efficiency.

ACCIONA's approach to this project goes beyond infrastructure development, by implementing strategies to exceed compliance standards and achieve positive social outcomes. This includes surpassing minimum training requirements and engaging Indigenous-owned businesses for a significant portion of the work.
