Balpara was contracted by Jemena to undertake site surveying, drafting and electrical design between multiple Zone Substations for the North East Link Project.
Our client Jemena was contracted by North East Link Project (NELP) to design and construct a Zone Substation to supply construction power for the NELP Zone Substation Connection Works.
This incorporates construction of Zone Substation infrastructure including a control building, transformers, internal access road, fibre optic connections and perimeter fence. Construction of electricity distribution poles and lines was required to connect existing electricity distribution infrastructure from Greensborough Rd to the Zone Substation site.
The North East Link North East Link is the biggest ever investment in Melbourne’s north east – the 6.5km North East Link tunnels from Watsonia to Bulleen aim to fix the missing link in Melbourne’s freeway network, taking 15,000 trucks off local roads a day and reducing travel times by up to 35 minutes.
Balpara, in delivering services to Jemema for the Zone Substation, conducted the following:
After completed construction Balpara performed detailing and auditing to confirm the design was built to the appropriate standards. Balpara’s intimate knowledge of the project from design through to completion was beneficial to the client.
