Victoria Road Landslide 2009, Woollahra, NSW

摘要

On the evening of 28 May 2009, a major landslide occurred at Victoria Road, Bellevue Hill, NSW, as arnconsequence of a failed water main. The landslide consumed two parked vehicles, ran-out acrossrnCooper Park and led to the closure of the roadway due to the loss of road pavement. Water mains,rngas mains and other buried services were disrupted, and a primary school closed. Within 7 weeks, thernlandform was re-established and Victoria Road was returned to service. This was through therncollaborative efforts of the engineering consultant, the civil contractor engaged for the repairs and thernCouncil (as primary asset owner). This paper describes the nature of the landslide, the inferred causernof the landslide and the nature of the repairs to the landform and road pavement.
