The Hickson Rd Upgrade is built on land that was identified to have levels of contamination that would be dangerous to the public when the ground is disturbed. As a result works are conducted in “the red zone”, a fully enclosed site where workers wear protective clothing and breathing apparatus at all times.
The added difficulties in operating equipment including excavators and survey equipment inside protective suit and breathing apparatus is testament to the skills sets and tenacity of our surveyors, utility locators and operators.
