BOVIS Lend Lease has won the Excellence in Health and Safety award at the Master Builders Association of Victoria 2010 National Excellence in Building and Construction Awards.
The award recognised Bovis Lend Lease’s work on the new Royal Children’s Hospital.
“The focus on safety was further exemplified by Bovis Lend Lease’s innovative approach to ensuring the safety of workers using scaffolds. Project team members developed a base design of a Scaffold Fall Protection Screen which has now gone on to be adopted on other Bovis Lend Lease projects around the country. In addition, the RCH team developed a base model for portable truck deck protection rails to protect workers when unloading trucks,” Bovis Lend Lease VIC/SA/TAS general manager Geoff Moore.
The new RCH is being delivered by the State Government of Victoria as a public private partnership with a consortium consisting of International Public Partnerships as equity holders and Spotless Group as facilities manager, with Bovis Lend Lease responsible for project management, design and construction.
