Boral Australia is nearing construction completion of a new cement storage and clinker grinding facility at a site adjacent to the Port of Geelong.
Construction of the new Boral site at Lascelles Wharf commenced in 2018 with the fthe grinding component of the new facility and the slag drying and handling component now completed.
Clinker and slag is unloaded from ships and delivered to the site via covered belt conveyors situated on Lascelles Wharf. Following processing, the final cement product is transported to the Victorian market via enclosed tanker trucks.
Boral has worked carefully on detailed plans to manage and mitigate the impacts of ambient dust, noise outputs and traffic impacts, which have been submitted to City of Greater Geelong as part of a Planning Application.
We will also work closely with other Port of Geelong precinct teams to inform planning of our activities on site, where possible.
