Phillip Island Motorcycle Grand Prix

2009-10-19T05:08:29Z

17-18 of October 2009, the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix festival of speed and entertainment took place southeast of Melbourne.

Originally opened in 1956 the 4.5 km circuit has became a favourite for riders over the years and a spectacular ground for fierce battles and championships alike.

With the assistance of Ace’s 60M travel tower attending, there was an assurance of safety and video footage via the connection of an aerial being held at the very top of the tower. It ensured vast connectivity between the security crews and motorcycle cameras, thus allowing the event to run more efficiently and maximise the experience for all involved in a safe manner.

In previous grand prix’s at Phillip Island, prior to the only truck of its kind (60M tower), helicopters were used to provide such service. Due to Ace making the tower available, Phillip Island now has a more suitable solution accessible to them.

Parliament House is one of Melbourne's best known landmarks. After many decisions and arguments, this site sits between Spring and Bourke street. As such an elegant piece of Nineteenth century architecture, filled with sweeping steps and grand arcade, it visually implies its sturdiness and strength.

To guarantee the stability and solidity of this Historic landmark, Ace’s 60M tower was called in to maintain Parliaments appearance. Ace easily and freely was allowed to inspect the building of any hazard, risk or dangers.

Guaranteeing its durability, Ace completed the job without any disturbance or interferences yet again.

The Bolte Bridge is one of Melbournes superstructure bridges. Constructed over 3 years (1996 to 1999) and more than $75 million later, the Bolte Bridge supports 6 lanes of automobile traffic separated by a 1.15m clear gap, stands tall of a total of 140 metres, and has an overall bridge length of 490 metres.

It spans the Yarra River and Victoria Harbour in the Docklands in the south eastern suburbs. Designed by architect Denton Corker Marshal and named after Victoria’s past premier Sir Henry Bolte, the Bolte is a sturdy piece of architecture.

After maintenance calls, Ace Tower Hire were the first on sight, with one of Melbourne’s tallest Barin 60M Aerial Work Platform travel tower, it made the job a lot easier to reach the heights of the bridge that needed attention. Without any struggle, maintenance ran smoothly and much more efficiently as the trained and experienced workers never fail.

The Bolte Bridge continues to be one of the safest and most memorable bridges in Victoria.
