Challenge

The Clyde Truck Marshalling Yard was established to load out spoil for the Sydney Metro 2 project.

This project was constructed over the Sydney to Newcastle Caltex fuel line due to the high pressure of this line there were a number of regulations and work practices that needed to be constructed and adhered by to ensure the safety of all on the project.

This project was also located within a close proximity to a environmentally sensitive area and required strict and detailed ecological management to protect the Green and Golden Bell frogs. This management changed  some of the work methods and construction practices.
