Montario Quarter – Parkland Boardwalk
Montario Quarter – Parkland Boardwalk
Perth, WA – The Montario Quarter, envisioned as a new benchmark for urban living, has undergone a series of phased upgrades to revitalise this vibrant urban village while preserving its rich history and natural resources. A significant part of this transformation is the development of a community parkland featuring open grassy areas, a dog park, and a tree-lined boardwalk.
As part of the development, Treadwell was engaged with supplying our NatureTREAD™ FRP solution, comprising of structural profiles, grating and balustrades, for the boardwalk.
Project Challenges
- Exposure to various outdoor conditions required the structure to be resistant to corrosion, pests and withstand UV exposure.
- Installation should not disrupt the location’s environment.
- Selected material had to be in line with the development’s status as a sustainable development.
