2022 brought high levels of rain and flooding to NSW. Various Councils in the South Western Slopes region of New South Wales in partnership with Traffic NSW coordinated safety measures to coordinate traffic through less affected passable road networks. Our teams worked around the clock to respond immediately to new water levels that inhibited major transport routes.

Once complete, there will be 42 bridges at 23 locations along the Gympie Bypass and more than 6 million cubic metres of earth will be moved from cuts to fill areas. This raises the new section of the highway to a level that will increase the flood immunity to withstand a one-in-100-year flood event.

Cardno works in Mackay
- Traffic Management
We have worked with Cardno throughout central and northern Queensland for quite some time now. These works are usually “Test Pits” prior to the major works being awarded, which gives the client a good idea of our safety standards and the turnaround time. This in turn gives us an insight to what projects are coming up and prepares us to deliver the best possible outcome.
The feedback has always been positive, and we continue to nurture the relationship we have with Cardno.
Our Ventia Works

Our work with Ventia has been 90% reactive. We work with Ventia throughout all Depots in Queensland with their Powerline Works.
Safety is always the number one priority, even on our smaller jobs. We share a common goal of keeping pedestrians and other road users safe around the works.
