Racecourse Road Culvert & Ford Crossing Upgrade
Racecourse Road, Altona

$3M Project Value

SME successfully delivered a complex infrastructure package within a live waterway environment at Kororoit Creek. The project involved the temporary diversion of the creek to facilitate the safe demolition of the existing road and box culverts. Working within an active watercourse presented significant environmental, safety, and logistical challenges, which were carefully managed through detailed planning, environmental controls, and stakeholder engagement.

Key components of the works included the installation of 25 new precast box culverts, headwalls, and wingwalls, as well as extensive rock beaching as specified by Melbourne Water to stabilise banks and prevent erosion. The road was elevated by approximately 1.5 metres to enhance flood resilience and reduce future flood risk.

Additionally, a new shared user path was constructed to provide improved access for cyclists and pedestrians. Pedestrian management remained a core focus, with safe detours and clearly marked signage provided to ensure minimal disruption to the public and nearby residents throughout the construction period.

All concrete and structural works were delivered to the highest standards, with close collaboration between SME and council representatives to ensure compliance with design specifications, safety requirements, and environmental controls.

This project highlighted SME’s capacity to manage high-risk environments, deliver civil infrastructure in sensitive ecological zones, and prioritise public safety and stakeholder coordination from start to finish.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

SME were engaged for the civil package at Sunshine North Riverside. Despite the project being situated on challenging terrain on the banks of the Maribyrnong River with a complex design, SME took it all in their stride, and worked through the design issues and additional scope increases, all while houses were getting built around them. Even through the unforeseen time of COVID-19 they were able to successfully complete the project. Overall, the experience was very positive.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Through recent projects I have had the opportunity to work with SME.
Encompassing the duration of these I have found them to be terrific in the understanding of not only the fundamental requirements of their works, but also in the finer nuances of scheduling works, problem solving through consultation and liaising with other trades to achieve an outcome not only serving themselves but also with the broader picture at hand. The quality of their work has been first rate, on time and always with a smile on their face. I would recommend SME to any potential client seeking a well organised, consultative and highly professional civil contractor.

SME has been instrumental at Hampton Quarter. The complexity of the project has brought a unique set of challenges and risks and Sam and his team have added considerable value in overcoming and mitigating these factors. They have contributed valuable design feedback and improvements, brought innovative construction methodology to the table and liaised with the many stakeholders to ensure their diverse needs are being met. On top of this, they have worked diligently to meet some tight deadlines. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for a similar scope.
