CHALLAGES

Managing a large number of residents posed difficulties, especially concerning road closures and temporary restrictions on driveway access.

However, our team implemented a comprehensive resident liaison plan, ensuring constant communication to reduce inconveniences.

Tackling deep excavations, some reaching up to 6 metres, demanded precision and safety measures. JLES navigated this with meticulous planning and execution, guaranteeing the structural integrity of the project.

Adverse weather conditions presented another hurdle, but our adaptable approach and proactive planning ensured that progress was steady even in challenging conditions.
