The Flood Reconstruction – Package 8C – Landslide Remedial Works was a critical initiative undertaken by CMC for Noosa Shire Council following significant landslides caused by heavy rainfall in early 2022. Spanning three key sites across Cooroy and Cootharaba, the project aimed to restore road formations and stabilise embankments. The works included bored pier construction, road pavement and drainage works, soil nailing, shotcrete protection, and embankment stabilisation.
With a focus on efficient execution, innovative solutions, and community-centric approaches, the project was delivered one month ahead of schedule despite a delayed start.
Efficient Delivery: Delivered one month ahead of schedule by optimising critical path sequencing, adding a second piling rig, and employing innovative execution strategies, saving $1M in costs.
Traffic Management: Ensured minimal disruptions with use of technological solutions such as real-time VMS board updates and adaptive traffic guidance.
Environmental Excellence: Delivered works with zero environmental incidents, reusing root balls for habitat creation, and aligning with Noosa Shire Council’s rehabilitation requirements.
Local Collaboration: Achieved 39% local spend, leaving a legacy for the community and businesses in the Sunshine Coast region.
Safety Culture: Maintained a robust safety framework, with zero LTIs and consistent positive feedback from council representatives.
