Description

VicRoads Concrete Single Flushout Riser (SD 1631)

The VicRoads Concrete Single Flushout Riser is a surface access point for cleaning and inspection of subsurface/pavement drains that complies with VicRoads / DTP Standard Drawing SD 1631. It enables jetting and debris removal while protecting the pavement structure.

Two formats are available: a compact 450mm x 450mm unit and a larger 950mm x 850mm “with apron” unit for increased surface bearing and access. Units are manufactured from high-strength precast concrete for durability and low maintenance in road and civil environments.
