Helping injured people in Gungahlin
Gungahlin is one of Canberra's fastest-growing districts. New suburbs like Taylor, Throsby and Jacka mean a lot of construction work, and the light industrial area in Mitchell is home to trades, warehousing and transport businesses. Light rail runs from the Gungahlin town centre along Flemington Road to the city.
The claims we most often see from Gungahlin are construction and trades injuries (falls, machinery and manual handling), warehouse and forklift injuries in Mitchell, and road accidents on Horse Park Drive, Gundaroo Drive, Flemington Road and the Barton Highway, including pedestrians and cyclists around the town centre and light rail stops.
Areas we cover here: Gungahlin town centre, Amaroo, Bonner, Casey, Crace, Forde, Franklin, Harrison, Jacka, Moncrieff, Ngunnawal, Nicholls, Palmerston, Taylor, Throsby and Mitchell.
Construction and trades injuries
Building sites often involve a builder, subcontractors and a principal contractor. As well as workers compensation, there may be a common law claim against someone other than your employer.
