Hurtle Plaza

The redevelopment of a former industrial site on Panalatinga Road, Old Reynella, created a modern large-format retail centre for TARAC, supporting the continued commercial growth of the Reynella precinct. The development comprised two flexible retail buildings, 92 on-grade carparks, access and loading areas, landscaping, stormwater infrastructure and associated site and service works.

MLEI provided civil and structural engineering services from concept through construction documentation and delivery support, including earthworks, stormwater management, service coordination, steel and precast structures, mezzanine floors, foundations and retaining systems. Delivered under a Design and Construct model, the project transformed the existing site into a contemporary retail development with improved local retail amenity and activation along the Panalatinga Road corridor.
