At John Holland, our purpose is simple: we transform lives with everything we do.
We’ve always known at its heart infrastructure is about people — our customers, our people, and the communities in which we work.
It's our people-centred approach, coupled with industry-leading capabilities, that make the John Holland difference.
Making more possible
We partner with communities, governments and leading businesses to provide essential infrastructure. We deliver projects that transform journeys by creating new road and rail networks. We design, engineer, construct and operate services across Australia and New Zealand. In short, we connect people to the places they want to go – and to each other.
Transforming lives
In the past year:
Passenger journeysParallel road and rail lines with original upward-moving road markings and railway sleepers.Source: https://johnholland.com.au/strapi/uploads/lines_a7a6f4f320.json (Lottie 5.9.0, composition 1-Lines), linked by https://johnholland.com.au/ __NEXT_DATA__ props.pageProps.pageData.transformingLive[0], “1 million+” passenger journeys. Original canvas: 245 × 245. Timeline: 0–180.00000733155 frames at 29.9700012207031 fps; duration 6.006006006006 seconds, repeating. Exact source cubic paths, layer order, position-minus-anchor transforms, in/out points, and temporal cubic easing retained. All spatial motion is collinear, so its arc-length interpolation is represented by translate. Road-marking passes: frames 0–60.0000024438501, 30–90.0000036657751, 90–150.000006109625, 120–180.00000733155; easing (1,0,0.667,1). Sleeper passes: frames 10–90.0000036657751 and 100–180.00000733155; easing (0.333,0,0.667,1). The source contains no masks, trim paths, shape morphs, or animated stroke properties. Background is transparent. Palette: stroke uses var(--icon-color, #eb1e32); set --icon-color:white on an inline SVG container for white.
1 million+
Over 1 million passenger journeys were taken daily on our networks
Tunnelling routeA circle grows, a winding route draws towards its destination, then a cross grows and rises. The original six-second animation repeats.Source: https://johnholland.com.au/strapi/uploads/metres_151407206e.json; composition: 2-Metres; original Lottie 5.9.0; 230 × 235; frames 0–180.00000733155 at 29.9700012207031 fps; duration 6.00600600601 seconds. All original cubic Bézier paths, layer in/out points, transform keyframes and temporal Bézier easing are preserved. The composition contains two consecutive three-second passes. Route Trim Paths end animates from 1% to 100%, reproduced with a normalized pathLength and animated dash offset. There are no masks or path morphs. Transparent background; set --icon-color to theme the original white strokes (default #eb1e32). No JavaScript or external assets.
4,700 metres
We tunnelled 4,700 metres for new ways to get around
First Nations business networkFour outlined nodes orbit and expand around a fixed central ring. Original John Holland network animation, converted from its 29.9700012207031 fps, 180-frame Lottie timeline to native SVG. The six-second sequence loops continuously.Source: https://johnholland.com.au/strapi/uploads/network_5a8dfbfc5d.json; original paths, transforms, stagger and cubic easing preserved. Transparent background. Stroke defaults to #eb1e32; set --icon-color to white on a red background. CSS custom properties inherit when this SVG is embedded inline, not through an img element.
$202 million
We spent $202 million with First Nations businesses and Social Enterprises
HandshakeTwo outlined hands enter, clasp and move together, repeating the original John Holland animation.Source: https://johnholland.com.au/strapi/uploads/hands_2bcacf3d20.json; Lottie 5.9.0, 4-Hands, 248 × 193, 29.970001220703 fps, frames 0–240.0000097754. Original timeline 8.008008008008 seconds: two consecutive identical 4.004004004004-second Hands precompositions. Exact source cubic geometry, static layer/group transforms, spatial motion control points, temporal Bézier easing, four inverted alpha track mattes per composition, frame-28 finger cutoff, and frame-28–30 matte morph are retained. Inverted alpha mattes are expressed as equivalent black-on-white SVG luminance masks. No trim paths, rotation, scale animation, effects, or external assets occur in this source. Transparent background; visible strokes use var(--icon-color, #eb1e32). Set --icon-color on an inline SVG or its container to theme it.

Join the team that's making a difference
We're currently involved in delivering many of Australia's largest infrastructure projects. Whatever we face, the heart of what we do is creating people-centred solutions to complex challenges and opportunities.
We think deeply about what we do and how it affects communities. We push boundaries and innovate, gain trust through our actions and whatever the project, we're in it for the long term.
This purpose is what really matters to us - our people, our customers and the communities in which we work.
We've had a big hand in the Australia we all know today. From Parliament House, Canberra, to the original Snowy Hydro Scheme, Sydney Football Stadium, and the Metro Tunnel in Melbourne.
No matter how big or small the project, we understand how it affects communities. We push boundaries, innovate, and gain trust through our actions.
