Today was a day spent preparing bridge piles.
We’ve had a few piles that have been lying around, still in the form they came out of a bridge somewhere in victoria a few years ago.
So we set about removing all the old bolts and dismantling the bracing. You wouldn’t think it, but this little job took our small gang of three most of the day.
However, in the afternoon, given the weather, we ran a special track patrol to ensure there was no damage, which there wasn’t. However the weather turned it on again for us, with a very impressive deluge lasting the whole patrol.
Next week’s plan is bridge work at Muckleford Creek, nothing formally planned for Monday, however at the very least well be on site from 8.30am Tuesday preparing for the upcoming works.
