Media Update Regarding Carlingford Crane
26 June 2025
Meriton’s experts, engineers and crews are currently working according to an approved plan to address the crane issue. After consultation with local police, emergency services and transport, Meriton will work through the weekend to make the crane safe. This will involve stabilising, straightening and then dismantling the crane by Sunday. In the interest of minimising disruption to local residents and road users, the stages of works will be carried out over the weekend in the expectation that residents will be able to return home Sunday night and roads reopened.
Meriton will update its website over the weekend in the event that there are any changes or new information.
