Western Australia
Leighton Contractors, in a joint venture with
Opus International Consultants (Opus), and in
collaboration with Main Roads Western Australia is
delivering improvement and maintenance services
for the Wheatbelt regional road network in WA.
The $191 million Integrated Services Arrangement
(ISA) project showcases Leighton Contractors’
infrastructure services expertise, and together
with Opus, provides construction, operations and
maintenance services to the 3,400km of main
roads across the Wheatbelt, from Northam to
Southern Cross and Moora to Narrogin.
The collaborative arrangement ensures the
road network links communities; facilitates
industrial, commercial and business development;
enables access to other modes of transport and
contributes to the economic advancement of the
region and the State.
To meet these needs, challenges and
requirements, the services offered by the
team working on the ISA Wheatbelt project
include network operations, operational asset
management, maintenance management and
delivery, and capital works delivery.
The team shares in, and is committed to achieving
the objectives and principles set by Main Roads
WA. These include a ‘best for network’ approach,
shared decision making, achieving best practice
in operational asset management and network
operations and achieving value for money through
appropriate risk sharing.
The project team works with local communities
to provide employees, subcontractors and
suppliers with access to training programs and
our advanced management systems.
