PROJECT OVERVIEW

This project delivered a new Direct to Boot (D2B) facility for Big W Karingal Hub, featuring an extension to the existing building using a new precast structure and the construction of a new D2B canopy to enhance customer convenience and operational efficiency.

The works included extensive structural and civil demolition, including the removal of the existing garden centre, to create space for the new D2B extension. The project also incorporated new landscaping to improve site presentation and customer amenity.
Together, these works expanded the store’s functional footprint and supported Big W’s growing online fulfilment network.
