Multiplex has completed the construction of the 604-bed Bay Village workers accommodation facility for Woodside in Karratha, WA.

The village contains 604 accommodation units, supported by central facilities including a gym, administration block, swimming pool and multi-use sports courts.

Multiplex overcame the challenges of construction during the cyclone season, including a direct hit by Cyclone Damien in early 2020. And despite the challenges of COVID-19, through careful planning and safe adaption of our work practices we were able to successfully deliver to program.

Local content was also a key success of the project, with a strong focus on local employment and procurement and over 80% of the workforce employed locally.
