The NorthConnex tunnel was completed and open to traffic at the end of October 2020, which kicked of the Defects Liability Period (DLP). I've been entrusted the roll of team lead that oversees all activities on behalf of the Lendlease and Bouygues Joint Venture. This includes not just defects (contrary to popular belief) but it also involves working with the client and their O&M contractor to ensure the tunnel remains safe for public use.
