Subdivision Development in Darwin
HELPING THE TERRITORY GROW
Growth in the Darwin and Great Darwin areas has increased substantially in recent years. This growth has seen the need for more infrastructure requirements, both in the residential and commercial sectors.

- Zuccoli Darwin

Boat Ramps & Waterways
CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE, AND STRENGTHENING
There is a vast number of waterways throughout the Northern Territory both for public or private use by the NT Government, Defence or commercially. Growth in both commercial and recreational activities has required the ongoing development of ramps and access roads throughout the NT.
Huge tidal activity, harsh weather conditions and daily use of public boat ramps creates the need for ongoing maintenance of these structures.
The Ostojic Group has been actively involved in the construction of marine structures, including:
- East Arm Multi-User Barge Ramp
- East Arm Port
- Dinah Beach Boat Ramp
- East Arm Boat Ramp
We can also complete construction projects for Ports, Seawalls, and Dams. You require it, we can build it.
Roads & Highway Construction
CONNECTING OUR COMMUNITY
Roads and Highways are essential connecting structures within our community both in built-up areas and remote locations connecting us all throughout the Northern Territory and to other locations of Australia.
With continual growth and the need for new intersections, overtaking lanes, road duplications, sealing of gravel roads, bridge construction, airport runways and taxiways, and maintenance to existing roads due to inclement weather and heavy traffic conditions, the Ostojic Group can complete any job, anywhere.
We have our own dedicated fleet of equipment and skilled operators who have extensive experience in the delivery of road projects.
The Ostojic Group has completed a countless number of road construction and maintenance projects on nearly every major road throughout the Northern Territory for both the NT Government and private developers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are civil works in construction?
Civil works refer to large-scale construction activities related to infrastructure and public assets. This includes roads, highways, drainage systems, earthworks, subdivisions, boat ramps, ports, and other structural developments. Civil works are typically carried out by specialist contractors using heavy machinery and follow detailed engineering plans to ensure long-term safety, durability, and compliance with regulatory standards. They form the backbone of most urban and regional development projects.
What types of civil works are common in Darwin?
In Darwin, civil works often involve road construction, highway upgrades, subdivision development, boat ramp installation, bulk earthworks, and remote access infrastructure. Due to the Northern Territory’s unique geography and climate, civil works in this region must account for seasonal conditions, flood mitigation, and access to remote locations. Contractors with local experience are usually best equipped to manage these variables and deliver reliable results.
Do civil works require permits or approvals?
Yes, most civil works require permits or regulatory approvals, especially when working on public infrastructure or environmentally sensitive areas. These approvals may come from local councils, the Northern Territory Government, or national authorities, depending on the project scale. Civil contractors typically handle this process in consultation with engineers, planners, and compliance officers to ensure works meet legal and environmental standards.
