Bespoke Wire and Rope partnered with Plant Based Building Solutions to design and engineer the ‘Urban Arbour’ concept, aligning with existing powder-coated aluminium shelters. To address past corrosion issues, stainless steel was selected for its durability in moist conditions where living plants thrive. This pilot program of six urban arbours aims to yield positive results for future expansions across the Melbourne network.

Ronstan Tensile Architecture revolutionised the Narre Warren Station rebuild by replacing 30 tonnes of carbon steel with just 3 tonnes of stainless steel cable. The new cable truss system, comprising precision-engineered stainless steel cables and fittings, supports the station’s ceiling with minimal material use. This innovative design not only reduced the overall weight and complexity of installation but also offered superior corrosion resistance, setting a new standard for sustainable infrastructure as part of Melbourne’s Level Crossing Removal initiative.
