Serving as Project Independent Certifier, the team will oversee the design and construction of major upgrades to double existing tracks from two to four along a 12.4-mile corridor, as well as the removal of five level crossings.

Jacobs Executive Vice President Keith Lawson said:

Being selected for the Logan and Gold Coast Faster Rail project reflects the trust placed in Jacobs’ and AJJV’s capability to deliver complex, high-impact infrastructure, leaving lasting benefits for the community. Our role will be pivotal in supporting a more connected, resilient and future-ready rail network for South East Queensland.
