The Te Atatu Road Corridor Improvements project involved providing additional bus lanes along Te Atatu road and upgraded pedestrian and cycle lane facilities and full depth pavement reconstruction. This corridor was severely congested with Vehicles, Shops and schools and additional community services.
Construction of new widening on SH1 between Manukau and Papakura. This included adding at least one lane in each direction along the motorway, numerous new bridges, new ramps at the Takanini interchange whilst maintaining traffic flows on one of the busiest sections of the motorway network (significant peak flows each day, as well as weekends)
A necessary safety and function upgrade for a busy State Highway intersection feeding the Coromandel and Bay of Plenty. The construction called for road safety auditing and site safety auditing as the works progressed to ensure a high level of safety and maintenance of traffic flows particularly in the peak seasons.
This is major safety improvement project along SH2 through the Bay of Plenty area. It involves widening of the existing two lane, two way SH. There are not significant shoulders and so working space is extremely tight. Two way traffic must be maintained at all times due to minimal alternate routes for detours
As part of the western ring route suite of projects the construction and traffic staging had to be developed to work in unison with the staging of the 2 existing projects Lincoln Road upgrade and the causeway upgrade. This involved upgrading the intersection and realignment of all ramps. Additional complexity was added when the Te Atatu Road corridor improvements project started
This State Highway Upgrade at Tarawera involves a number of structures, service relocations and risky areas that necessitate good, well-thought-out Traffic Management Design. Sometimes the most important part of that equation (to maintain safety) is to have robust independent auditing. That’s were we come in.
This project involves another new roundabout construction on a State Highway. This time at the intersection of SH1 and SH15 south of Whangarei. SH1 still carries high volumes of traffic, particularly heavy vehicles and we must maintain two way traffic flow at all times. High speeds and space constraints are the major challenges on this project
Growth in and around Glen Innes in East Auckland meant that the existing power supply was being put under pressure, and increased capacity was required. Large trenches through bustling urban areas and through major intersection meant timing and clever TMP design were crucial.
Construction methodology involved deep long trenches often on low volume roads. Clients preference was for the use of barriers however due to road constraints, these were often not able to be installed compliantly, posing additional risk to workers, as well as reducing the amount of work space affecting their productivity.
Auckland’s CBD development over recent years (and continuing) means a higher demand on the electricity network and not unexpectedly, upgrade work is occurring in parallel to ensure supply can meet demand and network resilience is appropriate. A major component of that was the upgrade of the 22kV line running the full length of Nelson St. Obviously this is an extremely busy corridor meaning a high degree of planning and coordination was necessary to even break ground.
