Stuart Highway and Western Creek Road Intersection Upgrade

Project Name: Stuart Highway and Western Creek Road Intersection Upgrade

Client: Department of Infrastructure, Planning and Logistics

Location: Stuart Highway and Western Creek Intersection, NT (approximately 5 hour drive from Darwin)

Date: Completed Early 2022

Description

The project consisted of road widening of the intersection which included batter and shoulder widening extensions (including earthworks, subgrade and pavement layer construction activities) of various widths as well as culvert works, subsoil drainage seal works, traffic management, pavement marking and more.

Issues/Challenges and how they were resolved

Due to the nature of road widening works, access roads were required to be built and traffic management plans in place to be able to shift traffic as required to accommodate for the works and allow for traffic flow throughout. This allowed for safe works to be executed and safe flow of traffic maintained.

Success of Project

The management of quality assurance and ensuring continuous traffic flow was paramount to the success of the project. D&P Management have received glowing reviews in the management of the project and evident in the Contractor Performance Scorecard (CPS) available upon request.
