As a co-founder of Highway Construction, Dean Capelli remains the Managing Director of the company to this day. Since its inception, the company has completed numerous projects throughout Western Australia. These projects range from the coastal environment of Margaret River in the south to the remote and sparse landscape of the Pilbara and Kimberley regions in the north.

Capitalising on a buoyant economy and an unprecedented demand for infrastructure development in Western Australia, Highway Construction has made a concerted, strategic effort to expand its operations and workforce in recent years. The most significant development is the company’s pre-qualification in 2007 by the Department of Main Roads Queensland to complete road and bridge projects up to $40 million in value. As a result, we are actively pursuing contracts in Queensland and continuing to develop additional resources in order to be a viable and effective contractor in that State.

Highway Construction has also grown through the acquisition of two companies have added synergy to our operations and improve our financial base. In 2007, we acquired Materials Consultants, a leading WA soils testing laboratory with a proven track record in its field. In 2008, Highway Construction also acquired Intersectional Linemarkers, a well established business that provides high quality line marking services on a variety of pavement surfaces, including roads and paths.

Highway Construction also holds a one-third ownership of Best Roads Group alongside joint venture partners, Boral Asphalt and Egis Consulting. Best Roads has a 10 year Term Network Contract to maintain the north metropolitan road network for Main Roads WA.
