Lachlan’s Line Bridge

Complex, Unique and One of a Kind are just a few descriptions of Lachlan’s Line 178metre, $40 million dollar Cycle and Pedestrian Bridge in Macquarie Park, NSW. The helix-shaped bridge design is an important piece of infrastructure. This bridge will give the 5,000 Lachlan’s Line residents safe access to the North Ryde train station, therefore helping to reduce their reliance on cars. Design combination of form, texture, space, colour and motion attempts to create an introverted experience for the users as if walking through a sculpture.

Lachlan’s Line Bridge – New approach to bridge design!

The blue colour of the structure, meanwhile, reflects the cool hues of the nearby buildings. The project team will introduce hanging gardens at designated resting areas to enhance the user experience and soften the harsh surrounding environment. These green spaces will also help extend the concept of greening across the entire bridge. As a result of its intricate design, the project demanded innovative fabrication and construction methods, thereby setting a new benchmark in advanced steel manufacturing in Australia. Consequently, the project team awarded the design-and-construct contract to a joint venture between Arenco (NSW) and the Daracon Group at Beresfield, NSW. Additionally, they sub-contracted Western Sydney-based steel fabricator S&L Steel to carry out the complex fabrication work.

Lachlan’s Line Bridge | Australian Scaffold | Quality Service

The Australian Scaffold Service Department proudly contributed to the construction of this complex bridge. Our Service team supplied, designed, constructed and installed the Scaffold required for the safe placement of the bridge. Having at least 10 team members work throughout the night on a number of occasions.

Australian Scaffold Service team constructed the required scaffold on-site at our Riverstone NSW warehouse and then had it delivered to the Lachlan’s Line location via semi-trailer. The scaffold was then manoeuvred and craned into place ready for the placement of the bridge sections.

Our Service Manager, Daniel Butlin, commented that he was extremely pleased with how the entire process was completed safely and on time.
