Civil works

Our contracting partners at Delta Group are now approximately 95 percent complete with civil and infrastructure works in Stage 1. Works continue on internal roads with concrete kerb installation and preparation for the base coarse of asphalt.

The finalisations of the site’s NBN plan and network design was submitted in June and is now approved and certified as NBN compliant ensuring future residents can stay connected.

Further infrastructure works have been completed including footpaths at the south end of the precinct, retaining walls, Stage 1 substation installation, and the street lighting poles have been installed and are operational.

The primary work on-site continued to take strides in July and August with the concrete structure of Park House completing mid-August. Park house has now reached Level 5 and it is expected to top-out in the coming weeks.

Formwork stripping is now underway to the whole building. The Ground level, levels 1, 2, and 3 have been completely stripped.
