How large is large? More than 500 concrete trucks lined up at Port Botany last weekend for the biggest elevated continuous concrete pour in New South Wales history. Roads and Ports Minister Duncan Gay said the pour was a critical stage in construction of a $55 million (Austrialian) elevated roundabout that would streamline access to and from Port Botany’s Brotherson Dock. "Managing contractors, Baulderstone, will pour more than 6,500 tonnes of concrete non-stop for 26 hours, a huge undertaking that’s been carefully planned for many months," Mr Gay said.
