Design of the required upgrade to the surrounding
external infrastructure is currently being
undertaken by the local authority and the
Department of Education and Training.
Our design consultants have been liaising with the
designers of the external works to ensure the
integration with the new school site is designed and
constructed appropriately.
Where impacts to the surrounding community are
unavoidable, Watpac will proactively notify
affected residents and seek to alleviate any
relevant concerns, where practical and feasible.
