Client Name: Transit NZ & North Shore City Council
Project Value: $14.6M
Location: SH1 at Sunnynook, Akoranga & Westlake
Completion Date: December 2007
Three bus stations and associated car parking plus a 120m pedestrian bridge built over a 6 lane live motorway.
This project scored 10 out of 10 on the complex project meter. Not only was there the live motorway, there was also predominantly soft ground and the nearby dotterel breeding grounds to consider. NZ Strong’s innovative trolley system reduced the number of required motorway closures by six and the dotterels are still going strong.
INTERESTING EXTRA
There has been interest from overseas movie location scouts wanting to use the ‘futuristic’ stations as backdrops.
