Project Overview


Alliance Surveying was engaged to deliver surveying services for the Elizabeth Quay Island development in Perth, working alongside Fremantle Constructions and Leighton Broad. This high-profile urban project required precision surveying to support the construction of retaining walls, service installations, and associated infrastructure.

As part of Perth’s major waterfront redevelopment, the works demanded strict accuracy, seamless coordination, and compliance with engineering design requirements. Our licensed surveyors led a skilled team to ensure all surveying deliverables supported construction efficiency and long-term structural integrity.


Key aspects of the project include:

Scope & Responsibilities

Our scope of work for Elizabeth Quay Island included:

  • Establishing a detailed survey control network across the site.
  • Setting out retaining walls, service corridors, and related structures.
  • As-built verification surveys to confirm construction tolerances.
  • Topographic and feature surveys for designers and engineers.
  • Provision of digital survey data for integration into project systems.

Challenges & Outcomes

Working in an island environment within a dense urban setting posed challenges around site access, coordination with multiple contractors, and managing tidal influences. Our team worked closely with project managers to maintain schedules and ensure safe operations in constrained conditions.

By delivering survey outputs with a 48-hour turnaround, we helped construction teams progress without delays. Our fixed-price commitment guaranteed financial certainty for the client, while mobilisation within 7 days of approval ensured we were ready to integrate with Fremantle Constructions and Leighton Broad’s delivery program.
