Bushland Road Upgrade Project

The project required the upgrade of the existing unsealed access road between Teviot Road and the proposed Water Transfer Station (WTS) to facilitate access to the WTS as well as providing safe access for the residents of Bushland Road.

​

HIG worked closely with Service Stream to produce a “best for project outcome” which incorporated the use of Extended Design Domain (EDD) standards and Lower Order Road Design Guidelines (LORDG) to derive solutions due to tight project constraints such as the densely wooded tight corridor, undulating topography, various drainage channels and floodways and private accesses.

​

The project extends from Teviot Rd (Ch. 0000) to the intersection of the WTS (Ch. 2627) and entailed the following works:

  • Horizontal and Vertical geometric realignment.

  • Upgrading the intersection of Teviot/Bushland Rd to accommodate B-Double turn movements.

  • Provisions of a new concrete floodway to improve flood immunity and resilience of the road link.

  • Provisions of roadside table drains to ensure the site drainage is free draining.

HIG provided the engineering certification for the project. This meant working closely with the Service Stream delivery team to resolve subgrade issues, respond to RFIs and provide assistance and advice in proposing fit-for-purpose solutions to Council and SEQ Water. Inspections were undertaken at critical stages of the works, ensuring compliance with the design and specifications.

Feedback from our Client, Service Stream

“Since the commencement of the Bushland Rd project, the service, professional integrity and knowledge of the HIG team has been fantastic. 


The design team, led by Roy Marsh, was able to derive an effective solution in tight project constraint and support that whole process though construction. 
 
The immediate practical solutions provided to the construction team to minimise delays through as-found conditions was really appreciated. The overall product result is a great outcome for the Southwest Pipeline project and its future users.”
