The bridge to Victoria

Heavy Lift have taken on the Victorian infrastructure market, recently securing a contract with the CPB Contractors and John Holland Joint Venture for the movement of structural steel on the West Gate Tunnel Project in Melbourne, Victoria. 

Heavy Lift General Manager Lorna Rechichi said the contract was a significant and exciting milestone for the business unit and Monadelphous. 

“It’s exciting to be working on a significant project in Victoria and being able to demonstrate our skills and expertise on the east coast of Australia,” she said. 

“Securing this contract allows for increased opportunities for growth and expansion of our heavy lift business and I’m confident the team can deliver a quality outcome.” 

“We’re committed to delivering excellence for our customers and this new contract award is a testament and recognition of those efforts,” she said. 

The West Gate Tunnel Project is a road infrastructure project in Melbourne that aims to reduce congestion and improve connectivity in the city by providing an alternative route to the West Gate Bridge.  

The overall project includes the construction of a tunnel and a bridge, as well as several interchanges and upgrades to existing road networks, which the Heavy Lift team will support through the haulage of steel via self propelled modular trailers (SPMT).
