This is a very busy stretch of road, 4.5km long bounded by residential, industrial and commercial properties. The road condition was poor with various surface treatment types that had degraded over time. The challenge was to complete the work across multiple sites within very restrictive work times. We had to work within the same traffic control closure window at each location and continue to allow traffic to flow. We also had to consider noise impact and ensure we minimised disruption for residents. This could only be achieved with detailed planning and precision scheduling that included working between 9pm and 5am.
