Like a glove: Spirit of Tasmania berths at her new Devonport terminal

Seeing the Spirit of Tasmania come alongside her new Devonport berth was a proud moment for everyone at BridgePro Engineering.

As a major subcontractor to head contractor BMD, BridgePro delivered the concrete ramp and approach structure leading to the vessel bridge: five spans, four lanes, and some complex geometry not normally seen on a road bridge, including tight curves and split grades across the deck. Around 30 of our people worked on it for 18 months, with precast from our construction neighbours in Latrobe and Ulverstone. A true North-West Tasmanian collaboration.

Credit to BMD as head contractor, and to Fitzgeralds for the steel ramp, gantry and marine support structures. A true team effort from start to finish. Read the project page.
