Acciona

Norbolsa | Both companies have been awarded, as part of the ActivUs consortium, a mega railway contract in Australia valued at €3.4 billion to improve the line between Brisbane and the Gold Coast region, a key project for the 2032 Olympic Games, an event that is expected to significantly increase demand for travel between the Queensland capital and one of the country’s main tourist destinations. Work will begin in late 2026.

In this regard, site preparation and preliminary work are scheduled for the first half of 2026, before the more intensive construction phases begin at the end of that same year.
