12.01.2022 Quickway are proud to be a Gold Sponsor for this year’s Darkness into Light Sydney walk which took place at sunrise on Saturday 8th May. Due to the current public health advice this year’s walk was different in that small gatherings took place at various locations, with our staff participating in Sydney’s eastern suburbs and on the Central Coast. Darkness into Light began in Dublin in 2009 when 400 people took part in a 5km walk to raise funds for Pieta House who provide a ...professional one-to-one therapeutic service to people who are in suicidal distress, those who engage in self-harm, and those bereaved by suicide. The movement has since grown, and in recent years hundreds of thousands of people have participated in Darkness into Light events all over the world. The Sydney event raises funds for both Pieta House and for batyr which is an Australian-based preventative mental health organisation, created and driven by young people, for young people. Photographed are some of our staff who took part in the event, and Tommy Kelly, Quickway Senior Project Manager, presenting cheque to Niall Kelly of Darkness into Light. #mentalhealth #suicideprevention #darknessintolight2021
12.01.2022 Safety Award of the Quarter goes to Kevin Fitzpatrick. As Kevin was arriving on site he noticed a wheel nut indicator laying on the road. He collected the wheel nut indicator and noticed that it had been sheared off so he spoke with our onsite subcontractor and found that it belonged to one of the many trucks on site. In taking the initiative to look into the situation, Kevin prevented a potentially major accident which could have arisen from the wheel assembly of the 30T truck dislodging while travelling fully loaded on the highway. All trucks and trailers on site were inspected by a qualified mechanic and the root cause of potential incident was identified and fixed.

05.01.2022 Flashback Friday to January 2010, when Quickway mobilised on the Kingsgrove to Revesby Quadruplication (K2RQ) Project - our first iconic Sydney project. We had already been involved in large projects on the Roads and Maritime Services (then known as Roads and Traffic Authority) network in regional NSW and on the Main Roads Queensland network in Brisbane. Being awarded a contract for a project on the Sydney Trains (then known as RailCorp) network was a major milestone for our ...company. K2RQ involved the construction of a second pair of 6.5km long tracks on the Sydney Trains East Hills line. Quickway were involved in constructing 10 new rail bridge, modifying 5 existing bridges incl. 1 incremental launch, in addition to constructing retaining walls, concrete plinths, capping beams and other concrete works. We are proud to have remained in the Sydney Trains supply chain since 2010, and have progressed from subcontracting at that time to main contracting which we have been doing more recently, as well as being able to provide a more varied range of services in line with company diversification and development over the past decade.

05.01.2022 Safety Award of the Quarter has been presented to Darren Davison from our Utilities Division. Darren was instrumental in the successful set-up of one of our current projects in Sydney. His contribution has included his innovative thinking which resulted in the creation of a Davit Arm Safety Rescue System, as well as a Post Office Box, which acts as a central assembly point and storage area for all required safety equipment for the site. These boxes now feature at 10 locatio...ns throughout the project, as requested by the client. As well as a safety initiative, the Davit Arm System has resulted in increased productivity, as the alternative (setting up of tripods) can be a time-consuming activity. Our client on the project have recognised Darren on many occasions because of his professional manner, ability to problem solve, deliver works to a high standard, and ensure that personnel remain safe at all times by putting in place a clear no harm protocol. He is someone who has become a well-known face of Quickway since the beginning of our works on the project.

03.01.2022 With 2019 rapidly coming to a close, we would like to reflect on what the Quickway team have achieved over the past 12 months. Our head office moved from Chester Hill to Silverwater, together with a new plant yard and storage facility.

With our dedication to safety, we managed to achieve a full year with zero lost time injuries. This was achieved partly throu...gh holding in excess of 250 Tool Box Talks, over 250 Safety Inspections, and over 60 Leadership Walks, and through the vigilance of our project delivery teams who looked out for themselves and for each other when working on various projects dotted across Australia ensuring that everyone got home safely. We are also proud that our staff have again maintained the ethos of giving back to the community through supporting many causes and raising funds for various charities throughout 2019 including International Womens Day, Pieta House, Preventing Suicide and Self Harm, Black Dog Institute, R U OK? Day, Australias Biggest Morning Tea, International Mens Health Week, Kidney Health Australia, Cancer Councils Pink Ribbon Day, and the Irish Support Agency of NSW. We look forward to continuing to partner with these organisations into 2020. Keep an eye out next week for an update on some of the project milestones from our various divisions...

Their aim is to engage with, & positively influence our 70,000+ youth members through mainstream sport, recreation, education, leadership & cultural programs. In addition, they work with at-risk youth to break the cycle of disadvantage through crime prevention, vocational education, youth capacity building & social responsibility programs to change the life outcomes of over 1500+ youth per year. Dennis Jones & Ian Wright (Senior Project Manager at Quickway) met James Frecklington Penrith Club Manager, recently & were given a guided tour of the club at Penrith to observe the excellent work James & the team do. #community #youth
