The report summarises the results of detailed transport network modelling undertaken by Veitch Lister Consulting on behalf of Infrastructure Australia for the 2019 Australian Infrastructure Audit. The modelling was undertaken for the nation’s six largest urban conurbations, defined as an extended urban area. 

The Walkerston Bypass Project is for a 10-kilometre link between the Peak Downs Highway and the Mackay Ring Road to bypass Walkerston and provide a more efficient link from the northern Bowen Basin to Mackay. 

The business case is for duplicating a 10.5km section of the Bruce Highway south of Cairns to create a four-lane highway. It is the third stage of the Cairns Southern Access Corridor program.

The Infrastructure Priority List is a critical reference point for the most important infrastructure investments Australia needs over the next 15 years.

The business case involves widening the M1 Pacific Motorway from four to six lanes in each direction, constructing a northbound off ramp from the M1 to Southport – Burleigh Road, upgrading on and off ramps, and upgrading cycling and pedestrian access.

The business case seeks to widen the nine-kilometre section of the M1 Pacific Motorway from six to eight lanes, consolidating on and off ramps, developing managed motorway technology, and extending the South East Busway to Springwood.

The Bindoon Bypass project is to construct a western bypass of Bindoon along the Great Northern Highway, in the Shire of Chittering, north-west of Perth. The bypass would be a two-lane highway, comprising 61.6 km of new highway and 4.4 km of improvements to the existing Great Northern Highway.

The 11km upgrade of the Bruce Highway has been added as a Priority Project on The Infrastructure Priority List.

The Nowra Bridge Project has been added to the Infrastructure Priority List as a Priority Project.

The Bruce Highway – Deception Bay Road Interchange Upgrade project has been added to the Infrastructure Priority List as a Priority Project.
