THE CHALLENGE:
Rangedale, in consultation with the client compiled a project specific methodology and intense program taking in to account the site complexities and constraints of high-volume traffic, limited working areas and hours, residents, business holders the environment and the like.
The project was undertaken with a high focus on minimising the impact on all stakeholders, the environment and surrounding community. After months of pre-planning site works kicked off in early November 2018. With multiple work fronts and tasks being undertaken simultaneously such electronic service location, ground penetrating radar, asphalt and road cutting, hydro excavation (non–destructive digging), survey, back fill, and hot mix asphalt road reinstatement both day and night.
