Hammond Road Duplication, Perth, WA
The City of Cockburn, the Government of Western Australia and the federal government have a mandate to improve Perth’s transport network and reduce traffic congestion. A recent example of this is the duplication of Hammond Road between Branch Circus and Bartram Road in Success, a southern suburb of Perth.
Project Design Brief
The upgrade consisted of creating a two-lane dual carriageway, and new roundabouts at three key intersections. Influenced by the local topography, there were some super elevated sections of road along bends. Engineers needed a compact drainage system that would effectively contain and capture the surface water runoff from the newly constructed lanes.
ACO's Solution
- KerbDrain QK200SM
- Based on the site-specific catchment hydraulics, ACO’s Technical Services department provided designers with hydraulic data, including slot intake capacities, and also advised how far apart to space gully pits
