How much did Majura Parkway cost to build?
The Majura Parkway is the 11.5 km dual carriageway in Canberra linking the Federal Highway to the Monaro Highway, with seven bridges including the Malcolm Fraser Bridge, three underpasses and an off-road shared path along its length, jointly funded by the Australian and ACT governments and opened on 22 April 2016. A ministerial release of that day names it the AUD 288 million Majura Parkway, and the Canberra Times wrote that it was projected to cost AUD 288 million and that is what it did cost.
