Project: Joseph Road – Road & Drainage Reconstruction

Client: Maribyrnong City Council

Work Description:

GP Bluestone was able to deliver the full reconstruction of Joseph Road in Footscray, a key part of the area's transformation into a high-density residential precinct. This complex project involves major drainage upgrades, new road pavement, footpaths, landscaping, public lighting, and associated infrastructure.

Works include the installation of over 1,000 metres of reinforced concrete stormwater pipes—ranging up to 1500mm in diameter—new junction and side entry pits, sawn bluestone kerbs, concrete footpaths, asphalt surfacing, and high-end landscaping treatments. The project also includes electrical civil works in coordination with Jemena, fencing along VicTrack boundaries, and construction of concrete sleeper retaining walls.

Delivered in a busy inner-urban environment, the works are staged to maintain safe pedestrian access and minimise disruption to surrounding residents and businesses.
