Downer EDI Limited (Downer) today announced it had been awarded a road maintenance contract by the
Department of Transport valued at an estimated $490 million, subject to annual budget reviews, over a
maximum term of seven-and-a-half years.

The contract begins in February 2023 for an initial three-and-a-half-year term, with the option for two

Under the contract, Downer will deliver routine maintenance, planned maintenance, defect and hazard
