Developed under a Public-Private Partnership (P3) model, the scheme included the construction of 195 km of four-lane motorway along Route 2, together with a further 12 km of connecting highway infrastructure linking Routes 1, 7 and 8.
The project incorporated a substantial number of interchanges, bridges and water crossings, including the landmark crossings over the Saint John River and Jemseg River, each measuring approximately one kilometre in length.
