QUT CESS is proud to announce our first industry event for 2017, an Industry presentation by Lendlease and BCC along with the Institute of Civil Engineers (ICE), on the Kingsford Smith Dr Upgrade Project. These Industry Nights are fantastic opportunities for all students to help you learn more about not only what projects are going on around you, but how they happen, and what life is like being a Real World Engineer.

This event is open to all Students at QUT. CESS Members keep an eye out for your discount code that will be distributed via email shortly.

"The Kingsford Smith Drive upgrade, Brisbane’s next flagship project to transform the city’s road network, is now underway and is expected to be completed in 2019.

The Kingsford Smith Drive upgrade will involve widening the road from four to six lanes between Theodore Street at Eagle Farm and Cooksley Street at Hamilton. It will also include improvement works between Cooksley Street and Breakfast Creek Road at Albion."
