New South Wales South Australia VictoriaLocated in the heart of Melbourne’s Southbank precinct, Melbourne Square is set to become one of the city’s largest mixed-use precincts.
The $2.8B project is home to European style parklands, complete with piazzas, outdoor terraces, grassy lawns, public gardens and tree lined boulevards. Covering 3,745m2, the park will take up 20% of the site footprint, with a network of footpaths connecting the six towers that will eventually occupy the site.
Designed by internationally acclaimed landscape architecture firm TCL, the design for the park was inspired by Melbourne’s own Royal Botanic Gardens, with influences from such cosmopolitan cities as Paris, Berlin and Spain.
Ecodynamics were engaged to source and install over 800m3 of soil for this project, which was either dumped, blown or slung into site over the course of October and November by our team and fleet.
Orchestrating the delivery of such a huge quantity of soil required strong collaboration between our sales and operational teams, including a number of site visits to determine the best method of installation to ensure the future success of the landscape.
