Gateway Estate - Doherty's Creek Contact Us

Truganina, VIC

Gateway Estate – Doherty’s Creek, located in Truganina was awarded to BildGroup to be delivered concurrently with the adjoining subdivision works. With a critical program, works were accelerated through winter with multiple crews and extended hours to exceed the expectations of all stakeholders.

As the project is at the downstream end of an in-line channel network, BildGroup arranged multiple handovers in close communication with Melbourne Water to ensure the earliest possible successful delivery to a very high quality.

BildGroup worked closely with Melbourne Water and Connolly Environmental to ensure all works were carried out in a manner that eliminated any impact to the surrounding environment.
