As of June 2026, Kelly Civil Construction is currently delivering civil and concrete works for the construction of a new Hungry Jack’s restaurant in Colac, Victoria, on behalf of College Construction. The project involves the redevelopment of an existing site and the delivery of key civil, environmental, and structural elements required for the new restaurant and associated infrastructure.
The initial stage of works involved bulk earthworks, including site excavation and the removal of contaminated and unsuitable soils to prepare the site for construction. Kelly Civil Construction also assisted in the removal of underground fuel tanks, ensuring works were undertaken safely and in a manner that minimised the spread of contaminants within the soil profile and surrounding environment.
Following remediation activities, suitable engineered fill was imported, placed, and compacted to project specifications to achieve the required subgrade conditions for future construction. All compaction requirements were verified to ensure compliance with project and engineering standards.
The project’s structural concrete works included excavation for the main restaurant raft slab, incorporating both internal and external beams. Kelly Civil Construction completed the formwork, reinforcement fixing, and concrete placement for the slab, delivering the structural foundation for the new facility. Close coordination with local plumbers, electricians, and other trades was maintained throughout construction to ensure efficient sequencing of works and support project timelines.
Subsequent works included the removal of two existing driveways and the reinstatement of kerb and channel to match existing profiles and ensure seamless integration with surrounding infrastructure.
Future stages of the project will involve the reinstatement of the pedestrian footpath, as well as the construction of heavy-duty concrete pavements surrounding the restaurant, including the drive-through lane and vehicle parking areas.
All works have been undertaken in accordance with project specifications, quality assurance procedures, and safety requirements. Through careful planning, environmental management, and stakeholder coordination, Kelly Civil Construction continues to support the successful delivery of this important commercial development within the Colac community.
