Government infrastructure contractors

Fulfil community needs with compliant infrastructure that stands up to long-term use.

Upgrading a transport network, creating a new park, or restoring a heritage building, Stripes can deliver.

From road construction to drainage, our government infrastructure contractors provide civil services for local councils and state departments across Australia.

We understand the responsibility that comes with public works, and the need to earn stakeholder trust. Backed by proven processes, clear communication and rigorous safety standards, our team works seamlessly within your procurement, project management and reporting frameworks. Reduce risk, protect community assets and gain compliant solutions on schedule.

Road construction

Connect your community with safe, durable transport infrastructure.

We build sealed and unsealed roads, access roads and networks designed for local traffic loads, drainage requirements and council specifications.

Drainage works & culverts

Manage stormwater, reduce flood risk and protect surrounding assets.

Our drainage capability covers pits, pipes, culverts and end structures. Each solution is engineered to meet hydraulic performance, environmental controls and compliance standards.

Civil concreting

Deliver hard-wearing concrete infrastructure for public use.

We supply paths, kerbs, pits, headwalls and slabs that handle constant pedestrian and vehicle traffic. Each pour is carefully scheduled, reinforced and finished to endure civic spaces for decades.

Project management

Coordinate complex works with confidence.

Our project managers handle stakeholder liaison, programming, and inspections for seamless, transparent delivery. Regular updates keep councils and the community informed throughout development.

Wet & dry hire

Scale capacity to meet programme windows and peak workload periods without the cost of ownership.

Our wet and dry hire fleet equips council-led projects with modern machinery for efficient delivery, plus qualified operators when required.

Commercial & industrial construction

Create compliant and cost-effective public buildings for any commercial or industrial application.

We work closely with councils and departments to build facilities such as depots, workshops, and storage units, managing each stage from early coordination to handover.

Your end-to-end partner for public works

Deliver your project as planned from day one. Our safety-first culture, in-house capability and hands-on experience in live civic settings help protect the public while maintaining productivity. We’re well-versed in council procurement frameworks, ensuring clear documentation, approvals, inspections and stakeholder coordination.

Compliance underpins every project. We provide government agencies with detailed documentation at every stage, completing all works to ISO-accredited quality, environmental and safety management standards. This ensures full traceability, consistent delivery and confidence that all regulatory obligations are being met.

Ensure efficient outcomes anywhere with the right resources. Proud to be a family-owned government construction company, we draw on generations of experience in regional public works. Renowned for reliable mobilisation, our team knows how to navigate the logistical, labour and access barriers faced by councils in remote communities.

We take full accountability with fewer interfaces. By delivering civil, concreting and structural works in-house, we operate as one coordinated team throughout your entire project. This integrated delivery streamlines communication, while improving control over quality, safety and scheduling.

No two public works projects are the same. That’s why we customise delivery around our clients’ funding, community needs and operational requirements. Always taking a practical and flexible approach, our dedicated team helps you meet specific technical, budgetary and compliance criteria as efficiently as possible.

Stay ahead of changing conditions. Public works often evolve due to approvals, weather, funding cycles and community considerations. To keep projects on programme, our skilled team anticipates challenges, adapts to opportunities and sets out dynamic solutions that maintain momentum.
