At Tron Civil, we understand that when it comes to civil infrastructure, the things people don’t see are often the most important. Stormwater infrastructure is a prime example. It’s hidden beneath our streets, parks, and developments, but its impact is visible everywhere, especially when it goes wrong.

Over nearly 50 years of working across South Australia, we’ve seen firsthand how vital effective drainage systems are to protecting our communities, supporting development, and safeguarding the environment. That’s why designing for drainage isn’t just a technical task for us, it’s a responsibility we take seriously on every project.

The Power of Prevention

Stormwater doesn’t wait. When it rains heavily, water needs a safe and efficient path away from built environments. If the infrastructure isn’t up to the task, the consequences can be devastating, flooded roads, damaged property, overwhelmed sewerage systems, and polluted waterways.

That’s why at Tron Civil, we design with prevention in mind. From detention basins and culverts to urban water reuse schemes and sustainable drainage systems (SuDS), our solutions are tailored to the specific needs of each location. We factor in rainfall patterns, land topography, catchment areas, and the long-term impacts of climate change to ensure our systems remain effective for years to come.

Thinking Ahead: More Than Just Pipes

Effective stormwater management isn’t just about diverting water away quickly, it’s about managing it intelligently.

We design systems that not only control the flow but also filter pollutants, reduce erosion, and support biodiversity. In many of our recent projects, we’ve integrated bio-retention swales, permeable paving, and wetlands to create more environmentally sustainable outcomes. These elements enhance stormwater quality while creating green spaces that benefit the community.

It’s this blend of functionality and environmental care that sets our work apart.

Collaboration is Key

Every successful drainage solution is the result of strong collaboration. We work closely with engineers, councils, developers and environmental consultants to ensure that our stormwater infrastructure meets both regulatory standards and local expectations. Whether we’re supporting a new housing development or upgrading urban streetscapes, we bring a proactive, solutions-focused mindset to the table.

We also engage with local communities where appropriate, recognising that good infrastructure should serve people first and foremost. Listening to those who live and work in the area helps us deliver outcomes that are not only technically sound but also socially responsible.

 

Our Track Record

From the Glenside Detention Stormwater Basin to smaller suburban upgrades, our team has delivered stormwater infrastructure across South Australia that performs under pressure. Each project reinforces our belief that drainage is not just an engineering issue, it’s about resilience, sustainability, and community wellbeing.

Let’s Build Smarter, Together

If you’re planning a project that involves drainage, whether it’s a large-scale development or a local upgrade, we’re here to help. At Tron Civil, we’re proud to be known not only for the quality of our construction, but for the thoughtfulness of our design.
