About the project

Stage 1 of the Coomera Connector (M9) is a 16 kilometre, $2.16 billion+ high-speed motorway connecting Coomera and Nerang, designed to alleviate M1 congestion.

Project scope

Niepe constructed the Coomera Overflow Bridge BR04 and retaining wall RW04. Works included forming, steel reinforcement placement and concrete pouring of all sub and superstructure elements of the bridges.

Outcomes

Installed 100 Super-T girder units over a 139 metre section of Coomera River Overflow.

Use of Niepe’s truss screed significantly improved concrete placement efficiency and reduced manual labour.

Niepe proactively managed flood and rainfall risks through early site stabilisation, ongoing erosion and sediment control maintenance, continuous environmental monitoring, and the protection of sensitive waterways.
