Meinhardt has the capability and balance sheet to participate in major project alliances, PPP, d&C and other procurement alternatives in addition to the delivery of conventional consulting services.

Whether participating in a major freeway alliance or resolving access requirements for the creation of an exciting new residential community, Meinhardt delivers simple and effective solutions within often complex environments.

Freeway networks remain a cornerstone of our integrated transport systems and play a major role driving our economy through the movement of people and freight.

designing modern freeway networks requires a delicate balance between the often competing demands of safety, accessibility, pricing, and efficiency within the complex framework of economics, social behaviour, cultural heritage and the environment.

To build and maintain a network which best serves the needs of business and our community we rely on accurate strategic planning, environmental and planning controls, best practice detailed designs, the use of new technologies, state of the art construction techniques and procurement methods which promote value adding opportunity.

The Pedestrian Bridge is the climax of the Curtain Wall, and the whole gateway experience.

Cragieburn Bypass

The Craigieburn bridge and sound walls are located on the new 23km Craigieburn Bypass which links the Hume Highway with the Melbourne ring road, north of Melbourne, Victoria.

Vicroads engaged Taylor and Cullity Lethlean along with Meinhardt at the tender development stage to provide an exciting group of elements along the freeway. These features set this road apart but also provide function in protecting neighbouring properties from road generated noise.

The three elements developed for the Craigieburn Bypass are orchestrated as a cohesive project with the freeway itself and its bridges and earthworks. The Curtain Wall is designed to be a travelling companion for a significant part of the journey. Its height set by noise control parameters, it is a fluid form; dynamic and experiential.
