Design and construction of a mixed use building comprising retail shops, supermarket and 45 luxury lifestyle boutique strata offices each with their own shower, balcony and basement carparking. The new Village Centre comprised 16 specialty shops on the ground level and includes a basement carpark with loading dock for retail tenants. Richard Crookes Constructions’ delivery team faced some major challenges on this project due to the constrained site location. With a frontage in a one-way street our company was unable to get large trucks down the lane therefore had to arrange all deliveries via smaller trucks. A crane was also installed during construction.
Richard Crookes Constructions also put stringent processes in place as the site was surrounded with residential properties and impact to them had to be kept to a minimum. Richard Crookes Constructions carried out a mailbox drop explaining to residents the extent of the works, the working hours and provided them with a phone number they could call 24 hours a day with any issues. This was particularly important during excavation and other noisy work activities.
