In a statement, the group said this marks the completion of Gamuda’s first road project in Australia since establishing its local presence in March 2019.
According to Gamuda Australia CEO Ewan Yee, the delivery ahead of schedule is a landmark achievement and demonstrates the strength of Gamuda's delivery model, engineering precision, and deep commitment to Australia’s infrastructure growth.
"We thank Transport for NSW and our partner John Holland for a collaborative delivery that sets a high

The project is jointly funded by the Australian and New South Wales governments with a combined investment of A$2.24bil.
