Overview
The 2022 La Nina flooding events in QLD created rockfall and geotechnical hazards which impacted hundreds of sites on Queensland roads. The majority of these works are being undertaken on behalf of the Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) as part of the Natural Disaster Program repair works, a result of major landslips that occurred through March 2022, which closed roads and caused unprecedented damage to infrastructure.
Solution
