Crucially, we delivered a multibillion-dollar, city-shaping modernisation program against the backdrop of the global financial crisis, navigating a period of changing risk and investment appetites through innovative solutions, including PPP agreements. I am proud to have led delivery of the portfolio that more than a decade since completion, are assets that continue to fulfil the Council’s vision for Brisbane.Notable projects included the Clem 7 PPP Toll Road, the Airport Link PPP Toll Road, Go Between Bridge Toll Road and the Eleanor Schonell Bridge, delivered on time, on budget and to the required outcomes.
