Kane Constructions has completed construction of the new Loddon Prison Middleton Annexe located in the regional Victorian town of Castlemaine.
Kane was awarded the $44 million contract by Deaprtment of Justice in April 2013 with works commencing on site in May 2013. The original scope comprised a new restricted minimum annexe of 120 beds. This was increased to 236 beds after construction had commenced. The revised $60 million project was delivered on 30 June 2014, some eight weeks ahead of schedule.
The project was designed by NBRS+Partners and delivered using local subcontractors and suppliers with the on site work force peaking at 240.
The facility was offically opened on 24 July.
