About the project
JMac was engaged for the design and redevelopment of Ipswich Mall including constructability advice, product procurement, operational forecasting and local buy content.
Scope
Demolition and removal of 1000m3 of existing pavement
3300m2 of granite pavers laid on concrete substrate
Construction of bridging slab over heritage listed Queensland Rail tunnel, located under project location
Installation of 115 precast and honed seating walls
Installation of 70 bollards
Installation of subterranean communication room
Installation of all new service, stormwater, water, electrical and irrigation infrastructure
Installation of feature lighting with over 100 metres of strip lighting and fairy lights, including programming of DMX feature lighting control system
Planting of 43,400 litre trees
Outcomes
Prior to commencing onsite, JMac completed a subterranean 3D scan which highlighted previously unknown services.
With this new extensive understanding of service locations, the project team ensured no service strikes and maintained services to local businesses throughout the works.
JMac also closely monitored dust and noise levels, ensured continual local access, and undertook night and weekend works where applicable to minimise disruption to local businesses.
As a result of JMac’s detailed planning and collaborative approach, the project was completed prior to Christmas trading.
