Our Major Projects
-
Meander Valley Dairy Development – Site Preparation
JLH Excavation & Cartage was engaged to deliver full site preparation works for a large-scale dairy development in the Meander Valley, transforming undeveloped farmland into a modern commercial operation. Works included the construction of on-farm roads with a new council road crossover, detailed pad preparation for key infrastructure such as a 1 megalitre water tank trimmed to within 5mm, and installation of on-farm drainage to ensure effective water management across the site.
Additional works included the installation of cow lanes using JLH’s specialised clay-based shale sourced from the Golden Valley Quarry, providing a durable yet soft surface for livestock. A safe and functional road underpass was also completed, with inlet and outlet preparation and a box culvert system installed. This project demonstrates JLH’s capability in delivering efficient, precise, and durable site preparation to support the successful establishment of large-scale agricultural operations.
