The project upgraded an appoximate 11 km section of the Midland Highway from Belle Vue Road at Epping Forest to Powranna Road. The upgrade included construction of additional sections of 2 + 1 lane arrangements to provide overtaking facilities, widening of the highway to include a central median incorporating a flexible safety barrier, provision of turning facilities and treatment of roadside hazards.
The Project involves construction of a two-lane second carriageway for 6.96km of Armadale Road between Anstey Road and Tapper Road.
The Project also includes upgrade works at three intersections; grade separation on Nicholson Road; construction of a principal shared path; street lighting and drainage; provision of two-metre sealed shoulders; as well as significant service relocations and associated works.
Construction of a 7.3km light rail system to extend the existing light rail from the Gold Coast University Hospital to connect with heavy rail network on the northern end of the Gold Coast at Helensvale, with new stations at Parkwood and Parkwood East and a new heavy/light rail interchange at Helensvale. The main features of the project are:
- 7.3km light rail corridor from Helensvale heavy rail station adjacent to the Gold Coast Line, then adjacent to the Smith Street Motorway to connect with Stage 1 at the Gold Coast University Hospital light rail station
- 3 new stations at Helensvale, Parkwood and Parkwood East, 160m bridge over Biggera Creek and 100m bridge over Coombaba Creek
- 1,000 car space park ‘n’ ride facility at Parkwood station and a 400 space expoansion of the existing park ‘n’ ride facility at Helensvale station
- Shared path adjacent to the rail track along Smith Street Motorway
- New at-grade pedestrian crossings at the stations and across the intersection of Smith Street and Napper Road
The project involved the replacement of an existing single-span deteriorated bridge with a new single-span concrete bridge. The scope of the project comprised:
Replacement of both the super-structure and sub-structure at the existing 19.95 metre long single-span concrete bridge with a 25 metre long single-span concrete bridge at approximately existing level
Approximately 380 metres of pavement transition at approach roads either side
Construction of a temporary side track to provide traffic with continued highway access during the construction phase
Properties being flooded due to upstream developmentConstuction of kerb and channel will contain road drainage and protect properties from flooding
