The project consisted of replacing the Melbourne Main Sewer, from Port Melbourne to Docklands. The river crossing was installed inside a wet cofferdam in three stages to minimise disruption to river traffic. The pipe was installed underwater in 5m, 10m and 20m sections. Sheet pile cofferdams were installed at each end to allow access shafts to be constructed.
