SYDNEY – Hundreds of people have been told to leave a tower block for a second time, after a crack appeared in its walls on Monday.
Many residents of the 38-storey Opal Tower had moved back in, after the alarm was first raised when loud noises were heard and a crack was discovered.
The company that built the tower said it remained “structurally sound” and the relocation was just a precaution.
It said this will allow engineers and investigators to work around the clock.
The builder, Icon, said that no residents were in danger, but this would help them repair the site in the quickest time possible without further disruption to residents. (BBC)
