The Sunbury Road Upgrade project involved adding extra lanes between Powlett Street and Bulla-Diggers Rest/Loemans Road. New traffic lights now replace the roundabouts at Francis Boulevard and Lancefield Road and traffic lights have been installed at the Sunbury Eco-hub. A new bridge over Jacksons Creek and new walking and cycling paths have also been constructed, improving safety and reliability for the community and 25,000 drivers who use Sunbury Road every day.

Key Achievements

CCF Earth Award: Winslow’s Sunbury Road Upgrade team was a category winner of the 2024 Civil Contractors Federation (CCF) Earth Awards in August. The award proudly recognised Winslow’s excellence in project delivery in the civil construction industry.

Environmental and sustainability management: The team implemented a range of key initiatives, trialed Victorian first innovations and received an “Excellent” rating from the Infrastructure Sustainability Council during the first “design” round.

Community and Stakeholder Engagement: The team collaborated with the community to construct a 40m long mural on the Jacksons Creek retaining wall. A whole range of community groups and stakeholders were involved in the process of picking the local artist and deciding the theme of the mural.

Social Procurement: Over the lifetime of the project, the project spent approximately $5.5 million on Indigenous sub-contractors or suppliers and almost $2.3 million on social enterprise sub-contractors or suppliers.
