The Branch was delighted to have Jenny Carbery, Delivery Director, North-South Corridor Project, Department for infrastructure and Transport present on the 10.5 km Torrens to Darlington (T2D) Project. This is the most significant infrastructure project ever undertaken in South Australia at around $10 Billion. Jenny’s presentation highlighted the significant amount of Quarry and Concrete products that would be required for the project, and it was the perfect opportunity for her to get the message across to the industry on upscaling to meet the expected future demand.
