The city therefore has undergone rapid transformation to become the business, community and employment hub of the Sunshine Coast. The Maroochydore City Centre will be strategic in building and strengthening the region with a blend of residential, commercial, retail, civic and community buildings.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vcex_heading text=”Project Design Brief” tag=”h2″ font_weight=”semibold” font_size=”1.154em” css=”.vc_custom_1534997838718{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1574901113737{padding-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Planners identified several arterial roads within the Maroochydore City Centre precinct that required significant drainage upgrades.

The system needed access points for maintenance.[/vc_column_text][vcex_heading text=”ACO’s Solution” tag=”h2″ font_weight=”semibold” font_size=”1.154em” css=”.vc_custom_1534997885619{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column_text]
