Revenue to CPB Contractors will be confirmed at contract execution.

CIMIC Group Chief Executive Officer Adolfo Valderas said: 'CIMIC Group is committed to working with our clients to deliver innovative and cost-effective transport projects that support regional economies and better connect communities.
'The Logan Enhancement project is a modern and sustainable infrastructure solution that will ease congestion, improve travel times and enhance motorists' safety on one of Queensland's busiest motorways.'

CPB Contractors Managing Director Román Garrido said: 'Delivering new and upgraded transport infrastructure within live traffic conditions is a core capability for CPB Contractors, and we will be working closely with Transurban Queensland to ensure our design and construction methods achieve the project's objectives.

'We are pleased to be working with Transurban Queensland to deliver the Logan Enhancement project and to contribute our major project experience in support of the expected growth of the region.'

Works include upgrading the Wembley Road, Beaudesert Road/Mount Lindesay Highway and Compton Road interchanges; realigning and widening the Logan Motorway to six lanes from Mount Lindesay Highway to the Wembley Road ramp; and widening the Gateway Extension Motorway from four to six lanes between Compton Road and the Logan Motorway.

The Logan Motorway and Gateway Extension Motorway are vital transport links that connect Logan with Ipswich in the west and the Gold Coast in the south, as well as the Port of Brisbane, Brisbane Airport and Australia Trade Coast commercial development precincts in the north.

Construction is expected to commence in mid-2017 and be completed by 2019.
