Project Summary

Bass Coast Shire Council appointed local contractor Wiltrack Earthmoving Pty Ltd to carry out major culvert pipe renewal works on Glen Alvie Road between Atkinson Road and Hickey Road, Lance Creek.

The aim of this project was to renew the culvert structure and provide protection from erosion of the road at this location. Works were completed on 18 January 2024.

These works were jointly funded by the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program (LRCIP) ($95,000) and Council ($80,000) as part of Council’s 2023/24 Capital Works Program.

  • Removal and replacement of the 1500mm diameter culvert pipe by 14.0 metres long, including installation of new headwalls, rock beaching and minor vegetation removal.
  • For safety reasons, this will be a construction zone. Appropriate and approved traffic measures will be in place throughout the duration of the works. All appropriate works approvals and permits have been approved from the relevant agencies.
  • The use of heavy plant and machinery including noisy, and vibration works such as earthworks, saw cutting and use of trucks/crane for delivering concrete/culverts to site.
  • We appreciate that these works may present an inconvenience to nearby properties, and we have asked for their patience during these times. Our contractor will make every effort to minimise disruptions during construction. Traffic will be down to one lane for the duration of the works. It is advised to plan your trip accordingly.
