To build a project of this size, large pieces of concrete that will form the new bridges, elevated roads and noise walls, need to be trucked from Benalla in north east Victoria to our construction sites in the inner west.
As work progresses on the West Gate Tunnel Project, there are large concrete segments manufactured in rural Victoria, that need to be delivered to our Footscray Road site, where we are constructing a number of bridges and an elevated roadway over Footscray Road .
Delivery of these segments starts in late 2020 and will last for approximately 24 months.
While most of the concrete segments will be able to be moved using major roads and freeways and travel like a normal truck load, some loads are of a size that for safety reasons need to travel much slower and use some inner west roads and travel overnight.
