Tenders have been released to market for works on the $95 million Mount Lindesay Highway in Queensland, with the detailed design for the new south bound bridge now finalised.

Tenders for the construction of upgrade works on the Mount Lindesay Highway between Johanna Street and South Street in Jimboomba will deliver safety improvements, ease congestion, and reduce travel times by widening the highway from two to four lanes, including construction of a new south bound bridge over the disused rail corridor.

The construction tender process is expected to take approximately three months and major construction is expected to start in late 2024 and expected to take approximately 18 months to complete.

A construction tender was released to market in early 2023 but then withdrawn pending the outcome of the Australian Government Infrastructure Investment Program Review.
