This trunk drainage upgrade project involved the installation of a multi cell DN675 RCP stormwater line, 1800x600 culverts, stormwater pits, kerb and channel and pavement reinstatement on Warner Street and Mowbray Street in Port Douglas. The project was the final stage of the drainage upgrades and was required to improve the functionality and efficiency of the drainage network. Given the location of the works within the Port Douglas CBD, extensive planning and stakeholder engagement was required to reduce the overall impact of construction activities to local businesses and residents.
