Cardrona Wastewater & Water Treatment Plants

Cardrona Valley

Project Overview
Nestled in foothills of the Cardrona Valley are two fundamental buildings providing the community of the Cardrona Valley with essential services. Calder Group were contracted to build two treatment plant buildings across two sites in the Cardrona Valley. The first stage of the project was to construct a waste water treatment building for specialist plant equipment, MCC, control room and a staff amenity area. The second stage consisted of constructing a similar style building at a different location in Cardrona to house water filtration system to provide potable drinking water to local residents and businesses. 

Both these projects provide a reticulated system for the Cardrona Valley, Cardrona Alpine Resort and the residential development at Mt Cardrona Station.

It was a great pleasure and a privilege for Calder Group to carry out and complete the civil and structural installation of the Cardrona Wastewater Treatment Plant and subsequently, the Cardrona Water Treatment Plant. Apex Water first engaged Calder Group in 2020 for the delivery of the wastewater treatment plant. From the beginning of the project, Calder Group took a very proactive approach, met all their deliverable timelines and even accelerated the construction schedule considerably. I am very pleased with the quality of workmanship Calder Group displayed during the construction phase of these projects and would not hesitate to refer them to other organisations.
