- constructing a new four-lane, eastbound bridge (two span super-Ts with continuous central pier) over the Bruce Highway from Nambour Connection Road to Maroochydore Road
- extending and widening all entry and exit ramps to the interchange – including additional traffic lanes to Nambour Connection Road and Maroochydore Road
- constructing two-way service roads connecting Maroochydore Road and Mons Road interchanges, including eastern and western service road bridges (six-span deck units)
- delivering new active transport facilities for bike riders and pedestrians through the interchange connecting from Nambour Connection Road to Mons Road
- widening of Mons Road under the Bruce Highway.
