What’s news?... Water Sensitive Urban Design Camco SA Pty Ltd have successfully completed road reconstructions, roundabout

rejuvenations, traffic calming devices and more recently water sensitive urban design

projects ranging in value from $20,000 up to in excess of $3M. The scope of these projects

has included granular pavement construction, deep lift asphalt, kerb removal and

replacement and drainage pod construction. We have also successfully adapted these

skills to hard play upgrades and tennis court construction.

Brooker Terrace, Hilton Drainage & Reconstruction Stages 1 & 2, City of West Torrens

The first stage of this project included the reconstruction of 6000m2 of existing roadway,

construction of 12 new drainage pods and associated stormwater. The second and final

stage of the Brooker Terrace drainage and reconstruction project incorporates a further

800m of road upgrade. The project scope includes demolition of the existing bitumen

pavement and kerbing, construction of new kerbing, deep lift asphalt pavement and

associated drainage works.

Rankine Road Reconstruction & Drainage Upgrade, City of West Torrens

This project involved installation of approximately 375m of new concrete stormwater drains

up to 450mm diameter. Feeding the new drains there are a series of Bio-filtration Pods,

which capture the runoff via the kerb drains. The flow is “cleaned” via numerous layers of

filtration material before returning to the stormwater system through the underground pipe

network. The second part of the project involved the complete reconstruction of approx.

800m2 of pavement. The existing pavement was excavated and removed from site, and

new pavement constructed to suit the design levels. The crown of the road was shifted to

maximise the drainage of the road, in a very flat location. New kerbing was also construct-

ed. At all times driveway access was provided to local residents, with normal vehicle traffic

diverted around the worksite using localised detour routes.

Druids Avenue Intersection Upgrade, Mount Barker, District Council of Mount Barker

The intersection of Druids Avenue and Cameron Road is a major thoroughfare for vehicles

frequenting the Mount Barker Caravan Park, Cornerstone College and Dunn Oval. It also serves as the transport route for large commercial vehicles within the trading precinct with an estimated 6000 vehicles travelling through the intersection per day. The project required the existing pavement to be excavated, reconstructed with deeplift pavement and construction of a new round-about annulus all whist maintaining access for the traffic

movements described above. By careful planning and negotiation with Council on Traffic Management Plans, night works, and some design modifications, the project was constructed with minimal impacts.

North Road, Nairne Traffic Management Scheme, District Council of Mount Barker

Construction of 4 traffic management devices designed to improve the flow of traffic along the entire length of North road,

Nairne. North Road is a busy local road running between Woodside Road and Bridge Street at Nairne. The existing road-way is quite narrow, has a daily traffic volume of around 900 vpd, and is also a Southlink bus route. The works were split into

four sites, involving two pavement reconstructions at major intersections and two raised paved driveway links to slow

vehicles down. The works had to be undertaken in such a manner as to not disrupt the bus movements; this lead to afterhours works and careful planning of bypass tracks. Excava-

tion via pavement profiling was employed to quicken the construction period, which minimised the disruption to local traffic movements.

St Peter’s College Wombat Crossings, St Peters College

This project is a road safety upgrade including the construction of 3 new wombat crossings (concrete, bitumen and linemarking) together with new lighting and the conversion of a hard play area into a staff carpark freeing up parking for the

congested junior school carpark. The works also included the modification of the Hackney Road carpark including road widening, pram ramps, installation of new kerbing and linemarking to facilitate the

calming of traffic to allow for safe school bus access.
