In late August, an Aboriginal Business Open House event was held for the new Main Roads Reid Highway Interchanges Project.

The project will be building two new bridged interchanges on Reid Highway at Altone Road and Drumpellier Drive / Daviot Road, removing two of the remaining five signalised intersections on Reid Highway.

With works set to commence in the coming months, the event attracted strong interest from Aboriginal businesses eager to explore opportunities.

Over 70 attendees, representing 36 local Aboriginal-owned businesses attended, taking the chance to meet the project team, ask questions, network and learn more about upcoming work packages and future opportunities.

The project is committed to working closely with Aboriginal businesses, ensuring they have meaningful opportunities to contribute and providing support throughout the tender process.
