Recent Projects

2011 - Gungahlin Drive Extension

The Gungahlin Drive Extension (GDE) was fully open for traffic in October 2011 with Cord Civil proud to deliver the project ahead of schedule.

In announcing the opening Minister for Territory and Municipal Services, Simon Corbell, noted that:

"The GDE is the largest roadwork project to have been undertaken by the ACT Government and its opening will be particularly welcome news for Gungahlin residents.

The nine kilometre, four-lane GDE will significantly reduce north-south traffic congestion during peak periods. It will play a crucial role in reducing journey times for trips to and from Gungahlin. It will also help to relieve congestion on other arterial roads.

Original timeframes had the road being completed and re-opened to traffic in December 2011, and this is two months ahead of that estimated completion date."
