LEND Lease’s subsidiary Abigroup has secured a contract for the first Pacific National coal rolling stock maintenance facility in Queensland near Nebo.
The Pacific National Infrastructure Alliance includes Abigroup, Pacific National, QR National and BG&E Pty Limited and the contract value to Abigroup is circa $100 million.
Abigroup’s role is to deliver the civil infrastructure component of the works and provide overarching management of the scope of the alliance works. Early works commenced on site in April 2011 and the project is due to be completed in June 2012.
Lend Lease group CEO Steve McCann said the contract expands the group’s infrastructure operations into Central Queensland and leverages Abigroup’s position in the rail market which is a key growth sector for the business.
“The increasing diversity of our client base further strengthens the group’s position in our growth market of infrastructure,” he concluded.
