WestConnex is Australia’s biggest integrated transport and urban revitalisation project. A joint project by the Australian Government and NSW State Government, the 33-kilometre predominantly underground motorway scheme includes around 26 kilometres of new tunnels passing underneath Sydney’s Inner West.
Our client sought a cranage solution to speed up the removal of spoil and movement of heavy equipment during the construction of ventilation shafts on what was a deep and congested excavation site.
We work with our clients to find a craneage solution that works – no matter how big or complex the job is.
From an engineering point-of-view, this project was logistically difficult due to:
Marr’s solution – with the combination of high-speed, high-capacity winches and long reach – provided the ability to remove 400 per cent more spoil compared to previously available approaches.
Once excavation works were completed, Marr’s cranes supported the heavy lifting requirements associated with construction of the ventilation facility.
Benefits of early engagement with Marr included:
