Summary
This report explores the Waterview Connection project while outlining the construction scope and projects related to it. The queries made during the construction period are presented along with public liaison activities utilized by the contractor to ensure the wellbeing of community.
The project works are being carried out in three construction divisions. They are northern and southern construction sectors and tunnel construction zone. Tunnels are dug and built by a tunnel boring machine for 2.4km. Each constructor sector is to build a trench at tunnel portals while southern construction sector is working on expanding the Maioro street interchange to connect the Waterview’s motorway.
In addition to construction of the tunnel, the redesigning of the urban area and developing the landscape frameworks include building the Hendon Park footbridge and reconstruction of Alan Wood Reserve with new sports facilities.
This report discusses the complaints made by the public about the Waterview Connection project and the clarifications made for smooth progress of the infrastructure developments.

Construction process is carried by construction sectors at north portal and south portal of the tunnel and the tunnel construction region. Southbound construction sector is mainly working on expanding Maioro Street interchange to connect at state highway 20 while Northern construction zone connecting the tunnels at state highway 16. Tunnel boring machine working at the tunnel construction sector is building the 13.1m diameter tunnel underground for 2.4km.
Other projects which are constructed simultaneously with the tunnel include the connecting pathways, Hendon Park footbridge, ventilation buildings at tunnel portals, noise barriers and new sport facilities at Alan Wood Reserve.
Liaison events carried by the alliance meet the concerns of the public on adverse effects of the Waterview project providing smooth propagation of the construction.
...lk about projects such as these two,we must bear in mind that there are relatively great chances for the government to atleast have awareness of the underlying practices and situation. If we use the alternatives, it will incur cost but it will let go of the sacrifices and compromises poverty stricken nations have to pay. On the stakeholders i.e. the general masses it will be beneficial as they will be paid for their work in legal framework and will be provided water products in the market (Me, 2014).
Construction works. MCF will be assigned for the main construction work. The following construction works are to be carried out by the MCF:
This Paper will describe and analyze three articles pertaining to the ongoing debate for and against Glen Canyon Dam. Two of these articles were found in the 1999 edition of A Sense of Place, and the third was downloaded off a site on the Internet (http://www.glencanyon.net/club.htm). These articles wi...
Over the next couple of years, a number of designs were proposed for the tunnel. The first proposal was presented by a firm called Jacobs and Davies. This plan called for a bi-level tunnel. The upper level would carry slower vehicles and the lower level would be used for express vehicles. An engineer named George Goethals who would later become the chief engineer of the Port Authority made the second proposal. His plan was a bi-level design in which each level would carry opposing lanes of traffic, two lanes in each direction.2 Both of these designs were not taken to the next step. The proposal of Clifford Milburn Holland (see Figure 1) was adopted as the design of the tunnel. Figure 1. Picture of Clifford Milburn Holland. http://www.panynj.gov/tbt/hthist.HTM
The issue that confronts many Kentuckians is whether or not the Williams and Boardwalk Pipeline, commonly called the Bluegrass Pipeline, serves for public use. Many people say that the pipeline will benefit the economy and provide jobs, while others complain that the pipeline will cause more harm than good. I am here to argue with the latter, the pipeline will cause much more harm than good. The pipeline is less for public use and more for national and international.
The Elizabeth River Tunnel, downtown, and midtown tunnel tolls are completely unfair for anyone who lives or works in Portsmouth; people shouldn’t have to pay to drive to work, or even simply drive in their state. The tunnel tolls have forced people to rearrange their whole life because of one simple tax. There happen to be upsides to this new tax, which is that over the course of 58 years the infrastructure of the tunnel will be a lot stronger since the population in Virginia has increased.
Although some people believe that the pipeline will do a great cause and help create jobs ; While others believe that this will have a big effect on the peoples water supply and cause more problems than guaranteeing a good solution. They presume it is a good idea to do construction in that specific area , believing it will do good for the economy , it could also cause great damage to the land and habitats of animals . As well as the water from the stream . Transporting fossil fuel could cause bad climate change and could end up harming the
The construction of Stanley Park is important to the environmental history of Canada as it shows how we valued nature in the past and possibly in the present. The building of the park was meant to help with the health and mental wellness of the people of the country, however, it did not take into account the value of the ecosystem itself. This can be an indication of the stance that was present about nature at the time and how it was only seen for the value that is visible, but not the invisible services it provides. This point can be further proved by the fact that many aspects of the park were actually altered by humans and yet called “pristine”. The building of the roads, causeways, and seawalls all changed the ecology and landscape of the park and all these changes were for the benefit of the people that were using the area.
The development has repositioned the existing asset by way of a major reconfiguration of the existing 'heritage' component, the construction of an additional nine levels of premium office accommodation and the restoration of the historic Rowe Street laneway.

The organization embarked on an ambitious construction program, initially focused on the construction of flourmills, a sugar refinery and a pasta factory. In 2000 the organization acquired the Benue Cement Company PLC from the Nigerian government and in 2003 commissioned the Obajana Cement Plant; the largest cement plant in sub-Saharan Africa.
Water CAD software was used to see the nodal and link features of the water supply and distribution network for scheme-1 and scheme-2 of Woldiya town.
Throughout this essay I will focus on the design and development of stadiums from the beginning of the 20th century until the present day.

The physical side and the financial side have to work in a open exchange of information. The synergy of this project before it ever starts construction must come from the cooperation and adjustments made by both sides to create the best development. The physical side must take into account several things with the environmental sector. How can this site be used? What amenities or attractions can I draw from the existing environment? How can I improve the existing environment to create a more valuable development? The urban linkage must take into consideration how they are going to create their link to the surrounding environment and/or city.
