The Driveway, stage 1 (mid section to road) complete

These are the final photos of stage 1. We need to stop at this point as Peter needs to relocate to brisbane and it looks like the weather for next week is about to turn on us. We will start stage 2 once Peter is again available and we have good weather in sight.
Since the formwork has been stripped off and the finishing touches have been applied. The concrete riser from the road is now dried and bitumen installed for some holes in front of the riser. The property has been thoroughly cleaned up and concrete sawcut to allow for expansion in the final section near the kerb.

Footing steel installed and a much needed arrival

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.
