Junttan HHK20SB in The West Gate Tunnel Project

26.5.2021

Brady Marine and Civil utilised their Junttan HHK20SB hydraulic impact hammer to install 4 nos 1400dia driven steel piles for the Bridge 80 river piers on the West gate Tunnel Project in Melbourne, Australia. Piles were driven to capacity before being excavated and concrete filled.

The West Gate Tunnel project involves the expansion of the West Gate Freeway in Melbourne, Australia, including the construction of twin tunnels under Yarraville and a bridge over the Maribyrnong River. The project will deliver a vital alternative to the West Gate Bridge. It will provide a much needed second river crossing, quicker and safer journeys, and remove thousands of trucks from residential streets. The project is a partnership between the Victorian Government and Transurban and will be built by construction contractors CPB Contractors and John Holland (CPBJH JV).
