Pacific Motorway Upgrade

Img 0481 2 Edit

Project Overview

The Pacific Motorway Upgrade between Eight Mile Plains and Daisy Hill forms Stage 2 of the Pacific Motorway M1 North Upgrade, delivering a major enhancement to one of South East Queensland’s busiest transport corridors. Spanning approximately 8km, the project was designed to improve motorway capacity, public transport connectivity, active transport links and overall network performance for the growing region.

The upgrade includes additional motorway lanes, a busway extension, a new bus station and park ‘n’ ride facility, and the completion of a critical cycleway connection. These improvements are aimed at reducing congestion, supporting safer travel, and creating a more efficient and resilient transport network for commuters and the wider community.

Scope of Works

CV was engaged to deliver the complete road lighting, traffic signal and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) package across all four construction stages of the Eight Mile Plains to Daisy Hill upgrade. Working within a live transport environment, CV provided the critical electrical infrastructure required to support safe and efficient operation of the upgraded motorway corridor.

Key deliverables:

  • Delivery and installation of more than 500 streetlights.
  • Design coordination and installation of 10 sets of traffic signals.
  • Installation of over 100km of electrical cabling.
  • Installation of approximately 20km of fibre optic cable for ITS and communications networks.
  • Delivery of road lighting, traffic signals and ITS infrastructure across four construction packages.
  • Successful management of more than 20,000 project work hours, contributing towards an expected 50,000 total work hours across the project.

Outcomes & Impact

  • Improved Traffic Flow – Increased motorway capacity supporting reduced congestion and more efficient peak-hour travel.
  • Enhanced Public Transport Connectivity – New public transport infrastructure improving accessibility and commuter choice.
  • Safer Transport Network – Modern road lighting, traffic signal systems and ITS infrastructure contributing to improved road user safety.
  • Stronger Active Transport Links – Completion of the cycleway connection encouraging alternative transport options and improved network integration.
  • Future-Ready Infrastructure – Extensive electrical and fibre optic networks supporting long-term operational performance and network reliability.
  • Increased Network Resilience – The upgraded corridor delivering improved efficiency, accessibility and flood resilience for the community.
