WATPAC is continuing to remain resilient during these economic times, willing almost $200 million worth of new work including sizable projects for the Commonwealth Department of Defence in Townsville and Brisbane.
In Townsville, Watpac was awarded the Enhanced Land Force Stage 1, New Facilities for the Third Battalion the Royal Australian Regiment (3 RAR) and Messing Facilities project for Defence.
This project is a lump sum Head Contract and involves the refurbishment and extension of some existing facilities and the construction of new facilities at Lavarack Barracks to be completed for the relocated 3 RAR.
In Brisbane, Watpac is soon to begin work on the RAAF Base Amberley Redevelopment Stage 3, Package 6 – Passive Defence Augmentation and Demolitions project.
In addition to the Defence projects, this week Watpac was named as one of the managing contractors for Round 2 of the $600 million Australian Government’s National Building Programme—Primary Schools for the 21st Century.
Other projects secured in the last month include Albion Park Demolition and Services Work, the Brisbane Cricket Ground Roof Reinstallation, and the Coopers Plains OHSS Complex W8 project.
