STRABAG’s Australian subsidiary Georgiou awarded € 125 million contract for Reid Highway upgrade in Perth
- Design and grade separation of two intersections to bridged interchanges on Perth’s Reid Highway
- More efficient traffic flow and increased safety on one of the region’s busiest freight corridors
Since joining the STRABAG Group in March 2025, Australian infrastructure specialist Georgiou Group has secured a major contract in Perth WA to deliver the Reid Highway upgrades for client, Department of Main Roads Western Australia. The design and build contract, valued at approximately 125 million euros, includes the modernisation of the Altone Road and Drumpellier Drive/Daviot Road intersections on Reid Highway. The project aims to reduce congestion and improve safety and traffic flow in Perth’s northeastern corridor. Preparatory works have commenced, with completion scheduled for 2028.
Improved mobility infrastructure for Perth’s northeast
The Reid Highway is one of the region’s busiest freight routes and forms part of the strategically important east-west connection across Perth, the capital of Western Australia. The replacement with grade-separated interchanges will reduce congestion and ensure more reliable and safer freight transport. Moreover, it will improve conditions for commuters.
Additionally, a new bridge and several underpasses will enhance access for cyclists and pedestrians to the popular Swan Valley wine and tourism region. The project is jointly funded by the Australian Federal Government and the Government of Western Australia.
Local expertise meets international strength
With the acquisition of Georgiou Group, STRABAG now has a broad-based presence in Australia. Georgiou benefits from the expertise and resources of a global corporation. For STRABAG, the merger represents a strategic expansion of its country portfolio – Australia stands out with stable conditions and high compliance standards. At the same time, STRABAG doubles its non-European business and strengthens its long-term resilience.
