Australia: Tunnel road decks near completion at the West Gate Tunnel Project

Now more than 70 per cent complete, more than 4.5km of road deck has been installed across both tunnels, with a specialist machine lifting and installing more than 2,000 giant 24-tonne concrete segments to create the future road surface.

The removal of both Tunnel Boring Machines is also underway, with a 400-tonne crane moving into position to lift the final pieces of TBM Bella’s 15-metre wide cutterhead out of the outbound portal, and the dismantling of TBM Vida nearing completion.
