Macleay Valley Way and Second Lane Intersection Upgrade
Project Summary
Kempsey Shire Council (Council) engaged CWC in December 2023 to develop the design of the Macleay Valley Way and Second Lane intersection in Kempsey. Due to various factors, Council required a fast-tracked design developed to complete the project within the approved grant funding deadlines.
CWC adopted an agile design development approach with Council, incorporating a gap analysis of works completed to date, risk assessment and detail design. This enabled CWC to complete the works within 3 months to enable construction to commence within the desirable timeframes.
Construction was managed by Council and completed with the assistance of subcontractors within the grant funding milestones. Council attributed program success to the high quality and efficient completion of the design in accordance with Council expectations. CWC involvement in the design process was well regarded by Council with great feedback provided on the coordination and management of the final design and drawing deliverables.
