The project involved rehabilitation of 75 maintenance holes located across Moreton Bay Regional Council’s area of operation.

Water Infrastructure Group Manager Construction Brian Mahon said that the 25 mm thick coating of calcium aluminate premix is expected to extend the life of the council’s assets for a minimum of 50 years.

“Water Infrastructure Group’s pipeline maintenance division has developed a very advanced technical methodology and efficient workflow for maintenance hole rehabilitation and I am pleased to see the team’s efforts recognised by this award,” said Mr Mahon.

Water Infrastructure Group also received a Merit Award for a rehabilitation project in Sydney for two sections of Sydney Water’s Northern Suburbs Ocean Outfall Sewer.
