The new wall - built with 10km of steel reinforcing bars; 1000 cubic metres of concrete; 330 metres of debris fencing and rear tubular handrail; and movement joints to control thermal expansion and contraction - is being worked on through the Christmas break by the construction team to ensure it is completed by the end of January 2008.
