PINEY CREEK BRIDGE

2019

VSL carried out post-tensioning works and installed carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) in Zeehan, Tasmania, to strengthen a key bridge in order to accommodate the increased loads needed for the operation of Higher Productivity Freight Vehicles (HPFV) on this important route.
The project was located over a hard-to-access creek subject to flash flooding. This involved working at height, over water and at varying flood levels.
