Super Ts installed at night near Brisbane airport

The Super Ts made at the project’s precast facility in Bald Hills, were lifted into place in stages by a 280t crawler crane. Night work avoided disruption to daytime airport traffic flow.
Now one year into construction, the Airport Link, Northern Busway and Airport Roundabout Upgrade, are all being built by BrisConnections which includes Thiess John Holland, at a combined cost of $4.8bn. BrisConnections was awarded a 45-year concession to design, construct, operate, maintain and finance the Airport Link toll road in Brisbane.
Airport Link is a 6.7km multi-lane electronic free-flow toll road with dual 5.7km of tunnels. It will be a key distribution road connecting Brisbane’s northern suburbs with the CBD, airport, North-South Bypass Tunnel and the Inner City Bypass. The Airport Link catchment contains 60% of Brisbane’s population, and with city growth the nation’s highest, it will address serious traffic problems.
Airport Link is being built, using an innovative design solution for traffic connections, which avoid intersection delays and streamline  traffic flows. Lane configuration allows for separate traffic movements, with early decision points, to minimise traffic weaving and merging.
The Gateway Motorway interchange upgrade at Brisbane Airport  is a separate contract being funded by the Queensland Government.
