Some projects you get to follow from the business case to the day the lanes open. This is one of them. The $95 million Mount Lindesay Highway upgrade between Johanna Street and South Street at Jimboomba is complete, with all four lanes now open. New southbound lanes and a bridge over the former rail corridor, upgraded intersections and safety improvements along a 1.5 km stretch carrying one of South East Queensland's fastest-growing communities. Plus a pedestrian and bike underpass that quietly does a lot of work for connectivity. Delivered by @SEE Group for Transport and Main Roads. This one runs deep for me. I worked on the business case for the Johanna Street to South Street upgrade back in 2021, then came back for the delivery with SEE Civil from 2024. Before that, from 2020 to 2023, I was part of @SMEC (an SJ Group company)'s team on the Stoney Camp Road to Chambers Flat Road section of the same highway, also alongside SEE Civil. Two stretches of the same corridor, and one I got to follow the whole way from business case to open road. Good road projects are not won when the lanes open. They are won years earlier, in the business case, in the early community conversations and in a strategy that holds through every change of scope and budget. Five years from business case to project delivery is exactly how this work is meant to land. Credit to everyone who carried it the distance. #Infrastructure #SEQ #RoadSafety #Jimboomba #CommunityEngagement
