Completion: | 2018 |

Scope: | 4,450m2 Full Carpark Renewal |
Budget: | $495,000 (Separable Portion of $1.7 Million Franklin Carpark Contract) |
The Clarks Beach Golf Club Carpark was the largest carpark in the Stage 2 of the
Franklin Carpark Contract. During the design phase, test pits were undertaken to
determine the depth of the basecourse metal required. The initial tests indicated
between 150mm to 200mm of basecourse was required, however the scalar test
results varied throughout the site.
The final design of the carpark resulted in sufficient fall levels to avoid any ponding
and drainage issues. Urban Solutions maintained ongoing communication with
the contractor and undertook frequent site visits to provide a more suitable
design.
Similar to Glenbrook Carpark, a prerequisite of the project was to ensure half
the carpark was available for use by the Golf Club at any time during the
construction. This process was carried out successfully, with the Golf Club very
appreciative of the final outcome.
