Stage 2 Development - Undercover Green

Updated 24/8/2010

Work has commenced on the development of the Rose Green, turning it into an 8 rink wide under cover green with a synthetic surface. Hopefully the project will be completed early in the 2010 / 2011 Season.

The green has been removed and the undersurface stabilised. It is hard to believe that the Australian Open finals were played on the space last February.

Some of the pillars which will support the roof have been installed.

 

Supports for the roof extension to house the plaza, toilets and bar are in place.

Preparing for the slab on the building extension.

The steel work on the western end of the green is starting to take shape.

The extensions are taking shape. The extended bar, a storeroom and toilet are being set up.

The steel for the roof has been laid out on the green like a giant meccano set.

Two very large cranes lift the assembled sections into place.

The size of the structure becomes apparent when comparing the size of the workmen.

The clubhouse end.

Insulation on the western end. Skylights can be seen.

As seen from above.

Looking from the north end of the Members Green. The span of the roof covers 47metres.

All the roofing is on, and the framing for the facia is being fitted.

The walkway had to be dug up to connect the sewerage.
