Keon Park Project

Keon Park Project
In 2022, the Level Crossing Removal Project teams contacted us about our efforts to save urban trees from being chipped. They had already begun preserving Class 1 durable hardwood logs from Northern region Level Crossing projects.
Together, we navigated the complexities of repurposing these logs, eventually transforming River Red Gum timber into feature battens for the newly reopened Keon Park train station in Thomastown, Melbourne.
We milled, dried, and machined the timber, integrating the remaining timber into our supply chain at Fair Wood, saving it from chipping or landfill.
This project, one of our first major milestones, has taught us much about reusing timber for higher purposes. While reusing timber often defaults to mulch, benches or habitat logs, achieving a project like this required significant coordination and effort.
