Overview
We were engaged as the head contractor by superintendents Case Meallin & Associates and Formium Landscape Architects on behalf of the Melbourne Cricket Club, to perform an extensive refurbishment of Yarra Park grounds.
Surrounding the iconic MCG, we performed works on a number of fronts over a period of twelve months to provide a vibrant upgrade of the existing parkland. A key challenge was the infamous events calendar held by the precinct, requiring constant and strategic planning with key stakeholders to ensure public safety was always of the utmost priority.
Working throughout key sporting events such as the 2015 Cricket World Cup, AFL Finals and international soccer, we took immense pride in being involved in the refurbishment of one of the nation’s most iconic sporting landmarks.
