Kelly & Shepherd is a medium sized civil contractor based in Penrith, in Sydney’s western suburbs.

In 1999 Brett Kelly and Colin Shepherd merged their businesses and combined a total of 35 years’ experience servicing the civil construction, quarrying and mining sectors.

Today Kelly & Shepherd has developed considerable expertise in key market sectors of civil construction, quarrying and mining including:

• All types of civil construction, including bulk and detail earthmoving, road construction, final trim, local government works and subdivision works
• Contract quarrying and mining
• Mine and quarry site rehabilitation
• "Turnkey" developments, from initial planning and financing, through to survey, design, construction and completion

We currently have ongoing contracts with the Penrith Lakes Development Corporation (PLDC), a joint venture between the major quarrying companies Boral, Readymix and Hansen, which operates Sydney’s largest quarry at the Penrith Lakes scheme.

Background information: The PLDC is a joint venture between Boral, Readymix and Hansen, which operates the Penrith Lakes scheme, a 2000 hectare site in Sydney’s western suburbs supplying about 65% of Sydney’s sand, aggregate and other quarry products, with a throughput of around 5 million tonnes of material a year. read more...

Kelly & Shepherd is continuing to lead the civil construction sector in NSW, with its recent purchase of Topcon's mmGPS machine control technology and rover - allowing it to carry out final trim grading and dozing, as well as site survey and setup to tolerances of within 5 mm.

Topcon's mmGPS system was released earlier this year, and completely eliminates the need for staking and stringlines when carrying out final trim on pavements and subgrades. read more...
