Heading & Associates also takes part in the Refurbishment of Patterson River tidal gates with WRA (Water Resources Alliance) starting the process of replacing the 30 year old tidal gates that are critical to protecting the Patterson Lakes community from flooding. The tidal gates on four channels from the Patterson River are reaching the end of their safe service life and the $18 million replacement program will provide the best possible level of flood protection, accommodating a one-in-one hundred year flood event.

The tidal gates at Whalers Cove will be the first to be replaced, followed by those at Runaway Bay and the Town Centre throughout 2011; the scope of work included are as follows: the replacement of gates, seals and mechanisms, new stop board slots, removal of existing gantry crane, refurbishment of generator facilities and structural concrete repair and coating.
