With construction of new Sydney Children's Hospital Stage 1 and Minderoo Children's Comprehensive Cancer Centre building well progressed, the first of two tower cranes was removed from site over a weekend in mid-July.
A mobile crane was used to dismantle the tower crane, followed by the parts being loaded onto trucks and trailers for removal from the site. The two cranes were named 'Jupiter' and 'Andy' by the winners of a Name the Cranes Competition held in 2023 when the impressive equipment arrived on site. Now that Jupiter has been dismantled, remaining lifting works will be completed by Andy until the second tower crane is removed later in the year. Published July 2024
