The Gateway Motorway (M2 to Eight Mile Plains and M1 to Pine River) is a major tolled motorway in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia which includes the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges (former Gateway Bridge). The motorway is operated by toll road operator Transurban.
It bypasses Brisbane in order to provide easier access between the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. It runs from the M2Logan Motorway in Drewvale (near Browns Plains) to the Gympie Arterial Road in Bald Hills. At the interchange with the Pacific Motorway at Eight Mile Plains (Pacific Motorway exit 16), its original terminus pre-1997, the route number changes from M2 (Logan Motorway - Pacific Motorway) to M1 (Pacific Motorway - Bruce Highway (Gympie Arterial Road)). The Sir Leo Hielscher Bridges are part of the Gateway Motorway and the Motorway provides access to the Port of Brisbane, Brisbane Airport and Brisbane Entertainment Centre.
Background
The motorway was constructed to connect the then-recently opened Gateway Bridge to the Bruce Highway in the north and the Pacific Motorway in the south. Construction on the road commenced in September 1985 and it was opened to traffic in December 1986.

Gateway Motorway and Bruce Highway Upgrades, North Brisbane to Moreton Bay Region
Early planning is underway to upgrade the Gateway Motorway and Bruce Highway – North Brisbane to Moreton Bay Region.
Significant population growth in Brisbane and the Moreton Bay Region is increasing travel demand on the Gateway Motorway, the Bruce Highway and Gympie Arterial Road.
Without additional capacity from future upgrades, this vital section of the National Highway will be heavily congested for longer periods, with travel times significantly increasing for motorists.
We are taking an integrated approach to planning to develop a whole-of-network solution for this important part of the National Highway.
We are undertaking community consultation and working through initial planning investigations for the upgrades, with the relevant business cases expected to be finalised by 2023....
Demolition of the old Gateway Motorway Overpass at Hendra in Brisbane's north occurred in June 2010 to enable ongoing work on the $327 million Airport Roundabout Upgrade project.
The demolition of the old overpass allowed for continued construction of the 21m high East West flyover and the introduction of a signalised 'fast diamond' intersection which will ultimately eliminate the roundabout known as
Brisbane's worst bottleneck.
The demolition of the old Gateway Motorway Overpass was a three step process which was undertaken over a three-week period, with the bridge decks and piers removed first, followed by the reinforced earth wall and the earth mound embankments.
The work occurred both day and night and involved directional closures of the roundabout with sign posted detours d...
