NRL legend Mark O'Meley is walking 500km for little kids facing cancer. Would be great if you could make a donation.

Please donate to my challenge to support kids and families facing cancer.

The sun is starting to rise as Maxibor prepares for another day on the Gold Coast sand backpass project. Maxibor is using HDD to install parts of the 7.8-kilometre pipeline to return natural sand to the areas where it has been eroded. This will increase the resilience of these iconic beaches to more extreme weather events.

Interesting article about infrastructure asset resilience using HDD as a solution.

After saying for several years that underground installation of high-voltage, long distance electrical transmission lines would be too expensive, Pacific Gas & Electric (PG & E) appears to have changed course. Anyone watching the international news lately will have seen the horrendous wildfires that...

Maxibor today successfully completed the install of a 1.320 kilometre 500mm waste water pipeline for Logan City Council. What a great job by Rodney and the Maxibor team.

This is one of the longest bores completed in Australia and demonstrates the capabilities and skills of Maxibor and how horizontal directional drilling can be good for the environment in the short and long term.

The bore hole was drilled to a diameter of 650mm and the very long pipe was pulled through in just a few days. The ground conditions were mostly rock which tests show was at a confined strength of over 60 MPa (that's quite hard rock!)

Maxibor was proud to be part of the Brisbane Irish SEQLD Drought Run yesterday. Over $70,000 raised with water and other suppliers being transported to farmers in desperate need.

Maxibor rescues joey during bushfires in Queensland.

The Maxibor team on the Greenbank to Flagstone Trunk Wastewater Pipeline rescued an orphaned joey found on the side of the road at South Maclean, Queensland during the bushfires.

Rodney took the joey from its mother’s pouch and contacted Wildcare Australia, with the joey now safely in the hands of the rescue organisation.

At a recent award event Rodney was recognised by Logan Water Infrastructure Alliance for his caring actions along with Maxibor and other staff for outstanding performances around environment (saving water), community (engaging local businesses), leadership - James Hand(difficult bores) and workplace mental health - Tyler Farmer (being happy).

These socially responsible actions provide just some of the demonstrated evidence that Maxibor is delivering outcomes that help build a future we all look forward to.
