PROJECT OVERVIEW<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

ESQ were engaged through a Local Buy contract to provide engineering services which included the designing of a new four lane road extension from Kawungan Way to Denman Camp Road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is required to accommodate for future growth in the area. The extension will become a major link to the Hervey Bay Airport and Marina, relieving congestion on Boat Harbour Drive and reducing travel times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through consultation with Council a revised concept design was approved that provided cost savings for this 2.0km brown field arterial road connection<\/p>\n\n\n\n
