Quad Park Lismore CBD
August 2024 update
The QUAD's development experienced a temporary slowdown due to inclement weather conditions in August. However, the return of favourable weather conditions allowed rapid progress, with the turfing successfully completed and concrete slabs honed to achieve a polished finish. Comprehensive concreting, tiling, and landscaping efforts in both the northern and southern areas of the QUAD were completed by the end of the month. The final steps involve top dressing and nurturing the newly laid grass to establish a robust ground cover.
July 2024 update
At The Quad, there was significant focus on concrete work, involving extensive excavation and removal of spoil from both The Quad and the Northern Terrace.
Sub-soil systems were installed and by the end of the month, preparations for new concrete slabs were complete.
Paving and the installation of new stormwater trunk lines in The Quad area were finished. Concrete was poured in both the western and northern areas, preparing them for final touches with sand and topsoil.
Further enhancements included the delivery of bulk topsoil and the start of landscaping and furniture setups.
Concrete pouring continued on the Northern Terrace and in the Southern Quad, with tiling also progressing on the Northern Terrace.
May 2024 update
With the sun out providing some much-needed drying time, works could progress in May 2024. The soil was turned with the removal of 150mm of turf and soil. Approximately 300 tonnes were sent for disposal.
Trenching was underway for new communications and electrical and the storm water drainage connected to the Gallery.
Towards the end of May 2024, large bulk excavation was in progress. This was to cut around the contaminated soil. And connection of the Library and substation power also occurred. Large excavation and truck presence would continue to the end of May 2024.
