The project will connect into a new sewerage pump station (SPS266) currently being constructed by Diona under a joint funding agreement between Urban Utilities and Brisbane City Council.
The package of works comprises constructing a trunk gravity sewer main via a 250 m long by 12.5 m deep microtunnel from the existing SPS to SPS266, as well as a new sewer rising main to the Victoria Bridge abutment.
Diona Queensland State Manager Richard Willis said being involved in the early works for the city-shaping project is a fantastic opportunity that highlights the company’s continued success in delivering complex projects in challenging urban environments.
“Diona is working collaboratively with Council’s Brisbane Metro project team to ensure regular and timely communication with stakeholders and the community impacted by these works,” said Mr Willis.
“Due to the inner-city location on Grey Street in South Brisbane, there are a number of considerations and highly impacted stakeholders in the area.
“Controlling noise and vibration, along with traffic management, will be essential in ensuring minimal impact to businesses and community members during the construction period.”
