Project Highlights
- 24-hour, non-stop work
- A conveying system and chute had to be installed to transfer aggregates from the stockpiles at ground level to the trucks below
- All equipment had to be lowered into the portal with a 210 tonne crane
- Height of the tunnel was insufficient for conventional trucks to dump so to facilitate moving the aggregate, we used Cat 730 articulate trucks with ejector boxes
- Without room to turn, the 730 Cat trucks reversed into the tunnel with their load
- A small dozer and compactor were used within the tunnel to place and compact the aggregate
- Access was restricted to the north portal on the north end of the tunnel
- The base of the north portal was approximately 7 meters below ground
