One of the most direct ways we create opportunity for First Nations businesses is through who we engage on our projects.

On the Lake Macdonald Dam Improvement Project we’re delivering for @seqwater in Queensland, we worked with @magnitudepipelinesconstruction – a 100% Indigenous owned business – to construct nearly two kilometres of HDPE pipeline for the siphon system used in lake lowering works.

The team delivered an innovative, low-emission pipeline solution ahead of schedule, replacing traditional diesel-powered pumping with a more sustainable approach.

Through the partnership with Magnitude, we’ve supported local jobs and helped embed First Nations knowledge and perspectives into the project.

It’s an example of what’s possible when First Nations businesses are given the opportunity to deliver on major infrastructure projects. Magnitude’s success has since opened doors for further Tier 1 opportunities on John Holland projects, contributing to greater supplier diversity across our business.

National Reconciliation Week is a moment to reflect on our reconciliation journey. We’re incredibly proud that since 2020, we’ve spent over $740 million with First Nations businesses across several projects, helping create more employment and procurement opportunities across the country.

This contributes to how we’re taking an ‘All In’ approach to reconciliation across our business.

Mater Hospital Springfield is officially open! 🏥

Our Queensland building team couldn’t be prouder. Delivered on time and on budget, Mater Hospital Springfield brings 186 new public beds, the Greater Springfield region’s first public emergency department and a full suite of health services to one of Queensland’s fastest growing communities.

We were honoured to mark the occasion alongside Her Excellency the Honourable Dr Jeannette Young AC PSM, Governor of Queensland; the Honourable David Crisafulli MP, Queensland Premier; the Honourable Tim Nicholls, Minister for Health and Ambulance Services; Cr Teresa Harding, Mayor of Ipswich; and the Most Reverend Shane Mackinlay, Archbishop of Brisbane, who blessed the facility.

Mater Hospital Springfield is one of several major health projects John Holland is proud to be delivering for Queensland. Following the delivery of Logan Hospital Expansion Stage 1 in 2024, our teams are currently on site at the Princess Alexandra Hospital expansion, Logan Hospital Expansion Stage 2, and the new Toowoomba Hospital.

Congratulations to the Mater team, our Queensland building team and everyone who played a role in delivering this landmark facility 👏

We’re making great progress on Penrith Stadium! 🏟️

The Eastern Grandstand roof is nearing completion, and four new light towers are now in place.

Standing 50 metres high and weighing 20 tonnes each, the new light towers are fitted with LED floodlights designed to last 100,000 hours and cut energy costs by up to 38 per cent.

It’s a more sustainable solution that will also deliver better visibility on the field and a more immersive experience for players, fans and concertgoers.

Out on the field, the Western Grandstand roof is taking shape. Our team is pre-assembling the 24-metre-long roof modules at ground level before lifting them into place. This approach reduces work at height and enables a safer and more precise installation.

Proud to be working with the @nswgov to deliver another iconic New South Wales stadium project.

Lifting and placing a 180-tonne piece of precision machinery is challenging at the best of times.

Throw in a worksite that’s 250 metres below ground and you start to appreciate the complexity and the unique challenges the team are successfully managing in delivering the Kidston pumped hydro project for Genex Power in central Queensland.

Over the weekend, the John Holland McConnell Dowell team successfully completed one of the project’s largest and most technically demanding lifts to date, carefully positioning one of two stators in the underground powerhouse.

The stator is the fixed part of the generator that creates the magnetic field required to produce electricity. It’s a piece of engineering that requires precise pre-assembly and exact placement – in this case, with a level tolerance of just 1.5mm.

This milestone is a credit to the skill, patience and teamwork of everyone involved in planning and executing the lift safely and successfully.

With the first stator now in place, the team is already preparing for the next major milestone — installation of the first rotor as the generator assembly continues.

For students from Urangan and Aldridge State High Schools on Queensland’s Fraser Coast, it was anything but a normal school day 👷

Our Queensland Train Manufacturing Program (QTMP) team, in partnership with @constructionskillsqueensland and @worldskillsau, opened the doors of our project site to students as part of the Try a Trade program.

From electrical work and carpentry to bricklaying, STEM activities and site tours, students had the unique opportunity to experience life on a major construction site and explore firsthand the many pathways the industry has to offer.

Every student was kitted out with safety boots, which were donated to their schools for future visits.

It’s what our partnership with CSQ is all about. Showing young Queenslanders that construction is a real and rewarding career pathway.

The Greater Springfield region in Queensland just got something it’s needed for a long time 🏥

Our Queensland building team recently celebrated a major milestone with the practical completion of Mater Hospital Springfield!

Delivered on time and on budget, the region’s first public hospital and emergency department is now caring for its first patients.

The new nine-storey hospital brings 186 new public beds, the first of their kind in the region. Beyond the emergency department, the site now includes outpatient and allied health services, comprehensive maternity care, pharmacy, training facilities for medical and nursing staff and a central sterilisation unit.

For a community set to welcome 100,000 new residents within the next five years, it’s exactly what the doctor ordered. Springfield residents won’t have to drive to Brisbane or Ipswich for emergency care, maternity services or paediatric wards.

Those services are now on their doorstep.

And through it all, the adjacent Mater Private Hospital kept its doors open and its services running.

Building around live hospital takes a particular kind of expertise. We’re proud to have delivered infrastructure that will build a healthier future for one of Australia’s fastest growing regions.

The finish line is in sight at the Princess Alexandra Hospital Expansion in Queensland! 🏥

With four new floors being built directly above a live emergency department that has remained fully open throughout, our team knows emergency healthcare can’t wait and has delivered with that front of mind.

We’ve recently completed the final pour of our Level 6 roof slab, which marks a major milestone as the project reaches structural top out in the coming weeks.

When complete, the expansion will add 249 new inpatient beds to one of Queensland’s busiest hospitals, including:

✅ 30 additional ICU beds and treatment areas
✅ 13 new cancer treatment bays
✅ Refurbished cardiac catheter lab admission and recovery areas

This isn’t the first time our team has tackled construction above a live emergency department. Our expertise built on the Logan Hospital Expansion Stage 1 in 2024 has carried directly into this project.

That experience matters when communities are depending on critical healthcare services every day.
