Macmahon Holdings Limited subsidiary, Decmil, has been awarded the A$61 million ($42 million) Marble Bar Road Upgrade project in Western Australia.
Decmil received a notice of award from HanRoy Iron Ore Projects Pty Ltd (HanRoy) for approximately 23 km of road construction upgrade works to Main Roads Western Australia standards on Marble Bar Road. Works are expected to commence in October 2024.
HanRoy is part of Hancock Prospecting, which is currently developing the McPhee iron ore project in the northeast Pilbara region of Western Australia, some 100 km north of Roy Hill Mine and 30 km north of Nullagine, with an expected production rate of approximately 9.5-9.7 Mt/y (wet). Primary crushed ore will be hauled via road train from McPhee to Roy Hill for processing, transport to the port and shipping. The Marble Bar Road is part of this route.
MacMahon CEO and Managing Director, Michael Finnegan, said: “I am pleased to see Decmil continue their great start of securing new, strategically aligned work. We look forward to delivering the Marble Bar Road upgrade project and continuing to build our relationship with HanRoy.”
