The O Mahurangi (Penlink), two-lane road for walking and cycling provide better, safer, more reliable transport options in Northern Auckland. That was us.

Murdoch University’s Boola Katitjin, which is the first mass-engineered-timber (MET) building in Western Australia? Yes, that was us too.

And the Tseung Kwan O Interchange in Hong Kong that improved the district’s accessibility amid increasing transport demand? You guessed it, us.
