Queensland Motorways manages the 70 kilometre long go via network of tolled roads which includes the: Clem Jones Tunnel (CLEM7), Go Between Bridge, Gateway Motorway and Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges; the Gateway Extension and Logan Motorway. In 2015 it will also operate Legacy Way when it opens to motorists. The company began operating in 1980 as the Gateway Bridge Company. It has its headquarters at Eight Mile Plains, Brisbane. In 2011, the State Government transferred ownership of Queensland Motorways to the State’s Defined Benefit Fund (under the management of QIC Global Infrastructure). In April 2014 QIC announced the sale of Queensland Motorways to a consortium comprising Transurban, Australian Super and Tawreed Investments. The sale was finalised on 2 July 2014 and the consortium appointed Transurban as the manager of Queensland Motorways. In late January 2015 the Queensland Motorways corporate brand was permanently transitioned to the Transurban brand and logo, to reflect the integration of its operations with the wider Transurban Group. ==Government sale== On 2 June 2009, the government announced the 'Renewing Queensland Plan' that would sell assets to raise $15 billion, and avoid a further $12 billion required in future capital investment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Queensland assets sale )〕 Queensland Motorways was included in this process. In 2011, the State Government transferred ownership of Queensland Motorways to the State’s Defined Benefit Fund as managed by QIC (Queensland Investment Corporation) Global Infrastructure. Queensland Motorways now operates under a 40–year Road Franchise Agreement with the state. This transfer set out that the state would continue to own the road and bridge infrastructure on the Gateway and Logan Motorways, while QIC would own the QML business and the right to toll the motorways. It also limited toll increases to not exceed CPI increases. On 12 December 2013, QIC announced that Queensland Motorways, with an estimated value of more than $5 billion, would be auctioned off. It was claimed that a change of ownership would not have any impact on existing tolls. Indicative bids will be made by the end of January, and then shortlisted bidders will then be requested submit binding bids, with the process scheduled for completion in April 2014. On 2 July 2014 Transurban completed financial close on the acquisition of Queensland Motorways.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Acquisition of Queensland Motorways complete )〕 2015 Referred to the ACCC for investigation 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Queensland Motorways」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
