Tennyson Inlet Road - Marlborough Sounds
Client : Marlborough Roads
Head Contractor : Downer
Keeping the only road into Duncan Bay open is critical for the Marlborough Sounds community.
We’re at Tennyson Inlet Road completing stage two of the temporary works: drilling and grouting a row of 45‑degree soil nails into the cut face, followed by bitumen cloth, SE62 mesh and walers to secure the slope.
With this stage wrapped, Downer can safely cut the face again, and we’ll be back next week to install the final four‑metre temporary nails before assisting with the permanent anchors into the block wall.
