Moura, Queensland
Commenced in August 2017, this project required the replacement of the existing raw water main with a new 400mm PE raw water main, from the intake at the Dawson River, to the water treatment plant in the Central Queensland town of Moura. A total of 5.3km in length, the project also required the construction of two concrete pigging stations and a number of air release and scour valves. The new main crossed the Dawson Highway, to accomplish this the highway was under bored and a 600mm PE enveloper pipe installed to accommodate the 400mm PE main.
Other aspects of these works included construction of an access path along the first 3.0 km of the alignment, which included a large amount of tree clearing and working in close proximity to an operating Waste Transfer Station.
This required CBP, to take appropriate measures to eliminate any risk of environmental damage.
