Brisbane Airport – New Parallel Runway

545a8174 Lr

Project Overview

The Brisbane Airport New Parallel Runway is one of Australia’s largest aviation infrastructure projects, delivering a major increase in airport capacity to support long-term regional growth and connectivity. With a project investment of $1.1 billion, the development included a new 3.3-kilometre runway, extensive taxiway networks, navigation systems, airfield infrastructure and a four-lane underpass. The runway opened in July 2020 and is expected to contribute an estimated $5 billion to the regional economy by 2035.

CV delivered critical electrical and communications infrastructure across the project, supporting the safe and reliable operation of key airport assets and transport infrastructure.
