South Bank TAFE Campus recovers from flood damage

The South Bank Campus in Brisbane was affected by a significant weather event, which resulted in the inundation of water on the campus on Monday 28 February 2022.  After the flood peaked, the water rose to around 1.3m high and caused damage to lifts and substantially impacted multiple buildings, through to their respective car parks and also the greenspace.  Once the water levels receded the following morning, Spotless stepped up with a maintenance and clean-up crew. The team worked tirelessly to clean the trail of mud, debris and damage to restore the campus back to state where it could welcome back students and staff.
