Gudai-Darri - Airport Terminal
Western Australia’s newest airport has opened at Gudai-Darri iron ore project in the Pilbara where construction is progressing ahead of the expected production ramp-up in early 2022.
The facility can accept a range of different aircraft including Boeing 737’s, A320’s, F100’s and King Airs. The current flight schedule includes four flights a week with additional flights expected to be added to the schedule next year. The airport is expected to handle more than 600 workers in a day at peak operating times.
The airport will deliver significant benefits in terms of minimising employees interaction with vehicles and driving as well as helping to manage employee fatigue thanks to a significant reduction in travel time from an alternate regional airport. The airport will also provide a safer landing option for Rio Tinto’s long-standing partner the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

Granary Drive Bridge, Muchea
The leadership team at Karak were involved with the construction of Granary Drive Bridge, Muchea.
The scope of work included all bulk earthworks, detailed excavation, Form, Reinforcement Installation and Concrete pouring of this bridge structure at Granary Drive, Muchea. The works had to be carried out during the dry season as this was a low-lying bridge and very susceptible to flooding in the wet winter months. The bulk earthworks were critical path to enable the piling rig to gain access into the riverbed area to auger CFA piles prior to the commencement of the constriction of the Abutments and Bridge Piers. Initially the bridge was designed to utilise precast planks, however due to the lead times, the client changed to an in-situ design. Karak had to change and manage the structure very closely to ensure adherence to specifications and QA /QC.
