Project Details

The Yawalpah Road Upgrade project involved the construction and duplication of approximately 1 km of dual lane pavements, shoulders, median island, civil service infrastructure and landscaping to an extremely busy section of Yawalpah Road at Pimpama.

The new lanes and median islands were constructed immediately adjacent to an existing heavily congested arterial road that carries over 35,000 vehicles per day and is significantly congested during peak flow times. Furthermore, the new road ties into an existing CoGC road network at one end and at the other, ties into a TMR roundabout at Exit 49 of the Pacific Motorway.

Rock and unsuitable materials were encountered, however Alder Constructions were able to assist CoGC and the Consultants to develop the required treatment types. These works greatly assisted the Developers to progress their Homemaker Centre Development.
