SIS has recently completed the design & construct of a SISCo-FC composite boardwalk and bridge structure for the Office of Environment & Heritage, NSW Parks & Wildlife. Named ‘The River Walk’, the boardwalk is 200 meters in length and follows along the bank of the River Lett at the Hartley Historic Site, near Lithgow in Australia’s stunning Blue Mountains. It is constructed from a combination of recycled wood plastic composite material, that allowed 16,800 kilograms of waste to be diverted from landfill along with high performance StructuralComp FRP. This state of the art material combination means that the boardwalk is mostly maintenance free and has a life expectancy beyond 70 years. The boardwalk is managed by the National Parks & Wildlife Service of NSW.
