The Sydney Gateway project, spanning from 2021 to 2024, is set to revolutionise connectivity in one of Australia’s busiest urban areas. Located at Sydney Airport in New South Wales, the project provides a toll-free connection from the St Peters Interchange, significantly improving journey times to the airport, the M5 and the Eastern Distributor.<\/p>\n

Dubbed the missing link in Sydney\u2019s motorway network, Sydney Gateway will enhance access to the Airport Precinct, offering a high-capacity network and more reliable journeys.<\/p>\n

50 MSE walls spanning plus 15,000m2<\/h3>\n

Geoquest played a pivotal role in the Sydney Gateway project, tasked with providing more than 50 Reinforced Earth\u00ae mechanically stabilised walls (MSE) across five main work areas: Northern Lands, St Peters Interchange, Tempe Tip, Airport Drive and Qantas Drive.<\/p>\n

These Reinforced Earth\u00ae structures, included abutment walls, approach ramps and retaining walls of various heights and complexities, cover an area exceeding 15,000m\u00b2. For this project Geoquest developed 3m wide by 1.5m high TerraPlus\u00ae concrete panels, utilising roughly 500 tons of soil reinforcing strips, with the tallest wall standing more than 8.5m high.<\/p>\n
