Riverlea Construction Update – June 2026
Welcome to your June Construction Update. It’s been another month of steady progress across Riverlea, with key projects continuing to take shape and new milestones reached as the community grows.
There’s plenty happening across the community. To take you behind the scenes, join Senior Project Manager Adrian Smith and Project Manager Laura Cornthwaite as they walk through the latest progress and milestones from across Riverlea.
Momentum Builds at The Palms Shopping Village
Exciting progress continues at The Palms as the centre moves closer to opening. Retailers are advancing their fit-outs, while landscaping, paving and shade structure installation continue across the precinct.
Behind the scenes, significant progress is being made across the village, with plenty of exciting milestones still to be shared in the weeks ahead.
Progress Along Riverlea Boulevard
Works are progressing across Riverlea Boulevard Stages 4 and 5, with road, kerb and footpath construction advancing throughout the precinct.
At the same time, essential infrastructure is being delivered to support future traffic upgrades, helping improve connectivity and create a well-connected road network as Riverlea continues to grow.
Construction Begins at Riverlea’s Sports Precinct
Construction has officially commenced at the Sports Precinct, marking an exciting milestone for Riverlea. Early earthworks are now underway as the future sporting and recreation facilities begin to take shape, bringing the community one step closer to enjoying these important new spaces.

Step Descriptions
Earthworks
Clear the existing area. Cut and fill the stage to the designed levels.
Soil Testing
In order to complete the design of a house, the builder’s engineer will need to visit the lot and drill into the ground to take soil samples. Once the ground has been tested the engineer will be able to design the floor slab, specific to that lot. The lot can be accessed for soil testing towards the end of civil works. Survey pegs need to be present in order for the engineer to identify the lot.
Sewer & Drainage
Installation of underground services to connect your allotment to the wider infrastructure.
Roads & Footpath
Creation of road infrastructure and footpath connecting your allotment to the community.
Valuations
Financiers/Banks will require a physical valuation of the lot in order to provide finance. A third-party valuer will be assigned by the bank to visit the site and provide a valuation of the land. In order to facilitate this, the lot requires survey pegs in place with the lot number listed. This is typically available in the final weeks leading up to civil works completion.
Site Survey
In order for the builder to finalise their design, the lot will need to be surveyed. A surveyor can only complete the site survey once roads, kerbs, and footpaths are installed, along with the finished grading of the lot. This is typically only available once civil works are fully complete.
Site Pegging
Boundary pegs are placed on the perimeter or corners of your property’s land boundaries to physically mark out the land’s boundary.
Service Connections
Further underground services are installed including water, gas, electricity and communications (nbn).
