He said there are a number of such projects like the Somosomo Hydro in Taveuni and the Navua hospital development.
He said the formal delivery of the equipment will be done next week.
The machines include excavators, dump trucks, bulldozers, vibratory rollers, a pneumatic roller, motor graders, wheel loaders, loader diggers, water trucks, pickups and trucks with cranes.
