Australian contractor’s third demolition as part of the Melbourne West Gate Tunnel project.
Currently under construction, the West Gate Tunnel in Melbourne, Australia, is a five-km (three mile) toll road to tackle congestion in the city’s western suburbs. As part of the works for the A$6.7 billion (US$ 5.1 billion) project, it has required significant demolition scope including existing buildings, bridges and infrastructure assets. Contractor City Circle was engaged under an existing contract to remove half of two existing bridges spanning 75 m (246 ft).
