Overview

Windermere Estate is a master planned community located 38km south-west of the Melbourne CBD in Mambourin. With over 4,700 proposed house lots across 350 hectares, this estate will ultimately be a home to over 15,000 residents. Windermere Estate proposed to have over 50 ha of open space area including creeks, playground, sports reserve and playground for the local community.

Scope

Rokon were initially engaged to construct Stages 5-8 of residential stages housing over 200 lots including early earthworks on Stage 15 & 16. This contract initially include bulk earthworks, drainage, sewer, gas main supply connection from Mambourin Estate to Windermere Estate and all associated infrastructure services to service all homes for future residents. Rokon has now been engaged to construct Windermere Wetlands and recently awarded Stage 9-12, 15 & 16, construction of major intersections on Ison Road, Branch Sewer & Melbourne Water Drainage Outfall for Windermere & Mambourin Estate, and associated works on Wetlands Waterway Section 2.

Outcome

Rokon has been working closely with our client, stake holders, council and service authorities to ensure we continue to produce quality work. To keep the momentum on-going, we work closely with the consultants to explore a cost effective proposal for any works be it design or construction perspective. For example, utilizing on site crushed material for material re-use on infrastructure and utilizing on site derived material to enhance the wetlands and floodway system.
