Unsealed Roads: Navigating the Path to Smooth Operations
The journey to efficient road construction and maintenance is about to begin! Forest Products Commission (FPC) is on a mission to find the perfect partners to tackle the unique challenges of unsealed roads. This is not your typical road project, and it demands expertise and dedication.
FPC is calling on businesses with the right qualifications to join forces and maintain the unsealed roads in South West Western Australia, an area of natural beauty and ecological importance managed by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions. But that's not all; the scope extends to shire roads and private properties where FPC's plantations thrive.
