Macarthur Cowpasture Bridge Repair Project
Project Overview
The Macarthur Cowpasture Bridge Repair Project was a vital infrastructure endeavor focused on restoring the structural integrity of the bridge through extensive concrete repairs. This initiative required the production of detailed defect survey drawings and documents to comply with the NSW government’s stringent documentation procedure, enabling the project’s official closure. EPTEC PTY LTD led the execution, with our firm providing essential design and drafting support to ensure success.
