Western Highway Bridge/Road
Australia
The great adaptability and flexibility of the Load-bearing tower Staxo 100 and Large-area formwork Top 50 systems together ensured optimum cost-efficiency and maximum safety during the construction of the western highway (Victoria). The Western Highway (A8) is being progressively upgraded as a four-lane divided highway between Ballarat and Stawell. As the principal road link between Melbourne and Adelaide, the Western Highway serves interstate trade between Victoria and South Australia and is the key transport corridor through Victoria’s western district.
