3rd Section of driveway poured!

After much prep for this section, today the concrete was finally poured.  We had to negotiate a few things in this area of the driveway, namely: boundary with rock wall from Adrian (neighbour on the left) storm-water grates, underground wiring and telstra access points - these all had to be correctly positioned/installed before we could start with the concrete. Also included is a roll-up kerb on the right-side of the driveway, which will hold the earth there in place and not fall onto the driveway itself.  Another great job from Pete and his team.

Toe footing steel RW2 section was installed, excess dirt and rocks were taken away and the toilet arrived on site (very good news)

Final Section Concrete Pour

It's been a long time coming, but we finally made it to the last concrete pour of this driveway. The last section took 16 cubic metres of concrete and we proved today that a concrete truck with 5 cubic metres of concrete can reverse up the driveway with no trouble at all. This says a lot about the strength and planning of such a driveway given the slope. It also has greater meaning for the house build - all footings and slabs will have easy access for the trucks in the future! Pete, Will and Clynton were on board today to finish the final section, which looks great - well done guys.

Pete helped us out to move forward with sorting out the drainage and erosion issues, before we could continue
