Project Description:

The Deception Bay Road Interchange Upgrade project is being delivered as part of the Bruce Highway Upgrade Program to improve safety, ease congestion and cater for future traffic growth.

Construction started in November 2020 on the $163 million project located on the Bruce Highway at Burpengary, 35km north of Brisbane with completion expected in 2023.

Key project features include the construction of two new parallel bridges over the Bruce Highway, upgrading two signalised intersections on Deception Bay Road, increasing the length and capacity of existing entry and exit ramps, and providing active transport facilities for people walking and riding.
