Brisbane Boy's College is an independent day and boarding school for boys, located in Toowong. Shamrock Civil were awarded the External Civil and Roadworks package for the redevelopment of the College.
The external civil and roadworks consisted of new internal roads, car park and bus set down area and modifications to Moggill Road and Miskin Street entrances.
This work involved:
- The demolition of 3,500m2 of existing road. Demolition of kerb, channel, crossovers, stormwater pipes and pits;
- Installation of 150m of stormwater pipes and associated manhole and inlet structures;
- Concrete works which included approx. 1,200m of and channels (including subsoils), approx. 380m2 of footpaths and two concrete roundabout infills;
- Two crossovers were also constructed, one at Moggill Road and one at Miskin Street; and
- Construction of 3,800m2 of new asphalt pavement.
The new road was constructed parallel to the Toowong Creek, therefore it was essential to maintain a high standard of silt management and environmental control to ensure the river reamined free from any debris or contaminates.
Shamrock Civil worked closely with Watpac and the Brisbane Boy's College to ensure all works were carried out in a delicate and professional manner to ensure that the school operated successfully and uninterrupted throughout the full duration of the project.
All works were carried out in accordance with Brisbane City Council Standards and completed on time and within budget.
