CARDNO PART OF TEAM FOR SECOND GATEWAY CROSSING

Cardno Limited (ASX: CDD) has been announced as a key participant in the Leighton
Abigroup Joint Venture team for the design, construct and maintain contract for the
Queensland Motorway Limited’s $1.88 Billion Gateway Upgrade Project.

Cardno will provide consulting engineering services and will assist the design and construct team.
Managing Director, Andrew Buckley said he was pleased Cardno will be part of the
team delivering this important piece of infrastructure for Queensland.

“Cardno brings to the joint venture an established track record in bridge design
excellence. Cardno has been involved in the design of more than 3,000 bridges in
Australia and overseas.

“Bridge design is part of the company’s culture. Our founding partner, Harold Davies
worked on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, so we are proud to be contributing to another
iconic bridge,” said Mr Buckley.

Teams from Cardno have worked on the Bolte Bridge in Melbourne, the Westlink M7
and Lane Cove Projects in Sydney and the Rajang Bridge in Malaysia.

Cardno has been involved in the second Gateway proposal for a number of years.
“Cardno Eppell Olsen, Cardno’s specialist traffic and transport arm, undertook the
transport planning work for the initial study and provided recommendations in relation
to the proposal to duplicate the bridge and create a new roadway to the north, so we
are pleased to see recommendations become a reality,” said Mr Buckley.
