The <strong>expansion and upgrade works<\/strong> are part of a plan by the Australian and New South Wales governments to turn the road into a four-lane highway, improve safety and relieve seasonal traffic congestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pacifico collaborated with the Client (Roads and Maritime Services) to develop and implement innovative and efficient design solutions which reduced the overall operations budget, this included the introduction of new U-girder precast sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During construction, the project was a substantial driver of economic activity in the region, with over 650 people working on site at its peak. Numerous local subcontractors were also involved, creating local employment opportunities. Our design reduced the required number of girders from 558 to 166, optimising cost and lessening the impact of maintenance regimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Design and construction of 19.5km of new dual carriageway road<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Two grade separated interchanges at Warrell Creek and Bald Hill
