Plexxcon are currently working through the construction for the upgrades and additions at Mauri Flour Mill in Moorooka. Plexxcon have been engaged under a Design and Construct Contract for the project which is split into four separable portions over three larger stages of works.

The works involve upgrades to the existing warehouse throughfare, installation of a new mezzanine floor facilitating new offices, staff amenities and raised storage, reconfiguring an existing carpark, construction of a link bridge for personnel access, waterproofing an existing wheat silo to conform with previous flood levels, construction of an acoustically sealed compressor room and mains water connection diversion works. A large and encompassing portion of the works is the external hardstand upgrades, designed for the improvement of truck movement and access on site.

Each stage of construction poses an additional safety requirement as the Mill is to remain live during all portions of the works. Mitigating these works will involve intricate internal traffic and pedestrian management and planning, along with the cooperation and input from the Mauri site team.
