WBHO Infrastructure are excited to announce the award of a package of work at Fortescue Metals Group’s Cloudbreak mine site for the construction of a 78m multi-plate arch tunnel associated with the Bigge Hub Development.

As part of the Bigge Hub, new LV and HV access routes are required to ensure safe and efficient transport within the mine site. Non-site aware LV access is required through an existing Autonomous Operating Zone to access the Bigge area. To enable this, the Bigge LV Tunnel will be constructed to ensure there is no interaction with the Autonomous trucks which will use the new haul road over the top of the Bigge LV Tunnel.

Over the past 12 months, WBHO-I have been awarded and are delivering 5 similar LV Tunnels in the Pilbara and South West regions of Western Australia.
