Coledale Rail Cutting, Sydney Trains

Sydney Trains engaged GSS to perform slope stability stabilisation measures at the Coledale Embankment on one of the busiest rail corridor networks in NSW. The project’s objective was to secure over 800m2 of a trackside embankment to ensure no further risk of rock fall and soil movement in the localised area.

Ground Stabilisation Systems (GSS) implemented a combination of Tecmat and Stainless Steel Tecco mesh systems to secure the embankment. The mesh was secured with a combination of 11m/10m soil nails and plates.
