In 2022,Transurban (with the support of its incident response and maintenance contractor, Ventia) achieved significant sustainability outcomes at its Hills M2 Motorway asset. Innovative solutions were deployed, in line with asset management best practice, resulting in success in diverting waste from landfill, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, generating biodiversity value and enhancing customer travel.
Independent verification of the sustainability outcomes was undertaken by using the Infrastructure Sustainability Council’s IS Operations rating scheme, and the Hills M2 Motorway was subsequently certified at an “Excellent Operations IS Rating”, with a score of 69 points-the highest operations rating within the industry
