Licola-Jamieson Road Remedial Works

Client:
Scope of work: The Licola Jamieson Roads is an important link between Victoria’s North East and Gippsland Regions and runs through difficult mountain terrain in Victoria’s high country. December 2006 saw more than 70 fires burning across Victoria’s high country with some of the worst fires located along the Licola-Jamieson Road.

February 2007 brought , with the fires having reduced much of the high country to a scorched, barren landscape, severe storms created a significant flood washing away large areas of roadway and depositing ash, silt and debris along the entire length of the roadway.  The impact on local communities and associated commercial operations through the necessary closure of the road was catastrophic.

With work due to commence in June 2007, a one in 300 year rain event resulted in significant flooding and damage to the many bridges along the Wellington and Macallister rivers. This flood cut access to Licola from both the east and west and severely damaged by washing away the road above Licola at 54 separate locations.

The comprehensive works required:

  • reinstatement of Licola-Jamieson Road that had been damaged/destroyed in 54 locations using in excess of 94,000 cubic metres of material to replace road embankments.
  • reinstatement/upgrade and maintenance of Target Creek Road to allow for larger vehicles to by-pass the Licola-Jamieson Road
  • reinstatement and maintenance of the Barkly Bridge temporary ford crossing to allow for safe access for Glencairn residents until the bridge was replaced
