The Challenges
Added complication of having to factor the bus into the drafting plans
Designing and installing a tight-fitting maintenance platform meant there was no margin for error.
Watkins Steel was contracted by Premis Solutions to design, construct, and install 6.2 tonnes of steelwork for a maintenance platform at the Toowong Bus Depot. The job required a mezzanine platform with handrails to be installed, enabling fleet maintenance to be performed by Council workers.
