Enhanced Land Force Stage 2C – Greenbank Training Area

The Greenbank Training Area Project involved the construction of additional training facilities, accommodation and supporting infrastructure, across a 4,600 hectare site, to support an increase in Defence training activities. As the Head Contractor for the works, St Hilliers successfully delivered the challenging 7 stage Project, having met all Defence requirements and handing over the site within the required 16 month program.

• 61 Buildings with 10km of new roads (rated to support loads between 40t and 70t);
• 339,000m3 of cut to fill;
• 160,000m2 of asphalt and road pavements, consisting of 7 pavement types, varying between 600 and 1,300mm deep;
