The Background
Brisbane’s popular City Reach Boardwalk which runs along the Brisbane River from the City Botanic Gardens to Howard Smith Wharves has undergone a $7 million refurbishment in order to extend its service life. The first stage of maintenance work (between 145 and 175 Eagle Street) included replacing deck panels, patch repairs and sealing concrete to eliminate further corrosion. The second stage focused on two sections of the bridge at Admiralty Quays and River Place Apartments. This stage involved repairing and replacing the concrete deck slabs that support the suspended bridges and repairing piles and beams under the boardwalk.
