CIVIL ENGINEERING PROJECTS
Civil Engineering
Canyon Coal Colliery Extension, Delmas
ICON was awarded a contract in October 2019 to do the groundwork, stormwater and civil infrastructure for Canyon Coal. The project was for the opencast Phalanndwa Colliery extension near Delmas, in preparation for the mine’s increased production output. The R2,5million project was completed on time in February 2020, despite heavy rainfall on site. While the rain did not delay the workload, it forced Icon to implement creative measures to ensure that runoff water coming in from the surrounding fields and stockpiles did not enter Icon’s excavation or erode the pipes.
Civil Engineering
Helderfontein Outfall Sewer, Johannesburg North

This pipeline has become the main line for the area and forms part of the main infrastructure allowing Century Property to start the development of Phase 2 of the Helderfontein upmarket housing estate on the Northern side of the Jukskei River.
