We hire for careers, not project life.

CPB Contractors has more than 50 major infrastructure projects in delivery, across all key sectors of the construction industry, including roads and bridges, rail, tunnelling, defence, airports, buildings and resources, providing you with career opportunities for years to come.


The Project


CIMIC Group companies Pacific Partnerships, CPB Contractors and UGL, along with JV Partner John Holland, and as part of the Canberra Metro consortium, will finance, design, build and operate the next stage of Canberra's world class light rail system, Stage 2A from the City to Commonwealth Park.


The Canberra Light Rail Stage 2A project is jointly funded by the Australian Government and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Government.

Canberra Metro was awarded the $577 million contract following a single select procurement process, generating revenue of approximately $227.5 million for CPB Contractors and UGL.


The Stage 2A "catenary free" or wireless extension will be delivered under Canberra Metro's existing public private partnership (PPP) with the ACT Government.
