Civils Make Inroads At Bradfield City Centre

Development at Bradfield City Centre continues to forge ahead with works progressing on site.

Covering approximately 38 hectares of land, the works will deliver new master planned roads, streetscapes, and services for almost 35 per cent of the new city by mid-2025.

This will enable the private development of Superlot land parcels at Bradfield City Centre and accelerate growth of the city.

Over 150 thousand cubic metres of material, enough to fill 60 Olympic swimming pools, will be cut and filled in this stage.

This will create:

• Four kilometres of new roadways;

• Eight kilometres of dedicated cycle and pedestrian paths;

• On-street parking for 178 cars;

• Four kiss and ride points, three taxi and two bus bays adjacent to Bradfield Metro Station

• Streetscapes lined with 600 trees;

• In-ground services including potable, recycled and wastewater, electrical and fibre network communications, supporting development in future Superlot land releases;

• Provision for 132kv electrical transmission supply; and

• With world-class sustainability underpinning Bradfield’s development, a more sustainable solution for road construction will be achieved using an innovative recycled asphalt product containing salvaged waste products diverted from landfill, while all in-situ concrete elements will be constructed with green concrete.

Local business Western Earth Moving (WEM Civil) will deliver the works, highlighting the economic benefits an urban development project of this size can bring to the region from day one.

Bradfield Development Authority CEO, Ken Morrison said this was another exciting step showing the momentum underway at Bradfield City Centre.

“With the first building near completion, the high-tech second building and Central Park progressing, and the first land release underway, these enabling works will help to fast-track further growth of the future city and drive economic outcomes in the region,” Mr Morrison said.
