Access was a major challenge, with only two entry points, requiring carefully coordinated logistics and collaboration with KiwiRail.
The team successfully managed unexpected ground conditions, service clashes, and client-supplied material delays, proactively resolving issues to keep the project moving. Timber barriers and slew limiters were installed to allow safe work adjacent to rail operations, while an alternative StoneStrong block retaining wall design saved over $500K. The project was delivered to a high-quality finish, earning commendation in Auckland Transport’s final evaluation of its safety, environmental compliance, and stakeholder engagement efforts.
