} ?>Bowmans Creek Wind Farm is a renewable energy generation facility with approval for 54 wind turbines with a capacity of 335 megawatts, and a second stage involving another 21 wind turbines in early development.
Our project team was responsible for the coordination and planning of the project’s internal access routes, earthworks, existing and proposed services, and construction methodology for the proposed wind turbine locations in response to the existing environment.
ADW Johnson was engaged to provide preliminary modelling and design for internal access tracks, crane and turbine pads, earthworks, and stormwater for 54 proposed wind turbines in Stage 1 and 21 wind turbines in Stage 2. The preliminary design covered the assessment of over 90km of access tracks through existing agricultural and rural land. The preliminary access track alignments were designed with specifications for access vehicles and turning paths suited for turbine component delivery.
This project is an example of how we harness our engineering experience within the sustainable and renewable engineering sector to produce high quality and economical designs.
ADW Johnson provided preliminary servicing coordination plans to assist with submissions to the rail authority, ARTC. The preliminary service coordination plans assessed proposed underground High Voltage services through the existing rail corridor and public road underpass and considered other existing service locations and ARTC guidelines.
