  • Bison United partnered with Melbourne Airport in 2019 and continue to document major construction projects both on the airfield and land side. Using advanced timelapse technology, on site videos, aerial drone footage and photography, we are APAM’s preferred supplier for all aviation construction visual documentation. Bison procured a specific tethered drone system for the Taxiway Zulu construction project and were first to fly on the Airport airfield, communicating not only construction milestones but dramatic footage of the grounded aircraft during the pandemic. Stakeholders and public news channels, both print, online and TV broadcast used the media to report during this unprecedented time. 2022 sees the recommencement of the T4 Express Link major project, a very exciting site to document upgrades for Melbourne Airport.

  • The removal of the dangerous level crossing at Toorak Road was awarded in 2019 and Bison United's almost 20 years of documenting rail construction projects was relied upon to document this iconic new rail bridge. An outstanding Alliance comprising of Laing O’Rourke, Jacobs and Metro (MTM) led to the level crossing being removed six months ahead of schedule. Bison provided some of the most breath taking visual media, aerial drone footage, photography and video used by news media and State Government to inform the public of the success of this major infrastructure project. The visual documentation of this project set the benchmark for future level crossing projects and the commencement of the new SEPA Manchester and Maroondah LCRP.
