🚧 Project Update – COGG Drainage Program 🚧

Last week, the team has been hard at work on the Waterfront as part of the COGG Drainage Program, completing stormwater drainage upgrades. Works included the establishment of local traffic management, excavation of existing pavement, installation of new pit and pipe networks, and reinstatement of pavements.

Pushing through multiple wet and rainy nights, the team worked tirelessly to ensure these critical infrastructure upgrades could be completed while minimising disruption to traffic flows and the surrounding community.

Working nights in challenging weather conditions is never easy, but the team has continued to demonstrate its commitment and resilience in delivering these works safely and efficiently.

A huge thank you and well done to everyone involved throughout this project — your hard work, long nights, and dedication have certainly not gone unnoticed. 👏
