We’re building a tunnel ventilation system near Blamey Road in Yallambie. This will help keep air quality safe by taking in fresh air from the tunnel entry by vehicle movement and fans. The air is then pushed up and out of the tunnel through the ventilation structure exit.
Air quality will be monitored as North East Link is built and when it opens to traffic, it will be monitored inside and outside the tunnels.
We're preparing the site for construction of the ventilation shaft to connect the tunnels underground to the ventilation facility, excavating the ventilation tunnel and shaft and preparing work areas.
