Coromandel is supplied on a spur off a hard tee connection at Kaimarama and does not have its own dedicated 66kV supply circuit. Historically, the area has always been exposed to long duration outages particularly during extreme weather conditions. Proposed solution Powerco propose to install a new, ≈4km, 110kV-capable underground cable between Kaimarama & Whitianga on road reserve of State Project solution overview Highway 25. This will resolve the capacity constraint between Kaimarama and Whitianga supplying load to the three substations. It will also create a new dedicated 66kV circuit for Coromandel through the removal of the hard tee connection at Kaimarama. The existing 66kV bus 1 Forecast expenditure is based on Powerco’s financial year (i.e. FY19 is for the period April 2018 through March 2019).

  • Rail Heritage Managed by the Department of Conservation West Coast „ Charming Creek Walkway, 1910-1958, Near Westport
    Prepared by Paul Mahoney, National Coordinator Rail Heritage managed by the Historic Heritage, Department of Conservation. Department of Conservation June 2007 The Department manages a diverse range of rail heritage sites that are becoming increasingly popular. In 2007 the Automobile Association asked over 20,000 New Zealanders to identify the '101 Must-Do’s for Kiwis' — places they most wanted to visit. Of all DOC's historic sites two rail heritage sites were the most popular; the Central Otago Rail Trail (14th) and the Karangahake Mines (42nd). Rail heritage sites are different from static museums and operating lines. They offer an adventure experience exploring remote and scenic trails, adding diversity to the overall rail heritage scene and providing further entry points to trigger peoples potential interest. DOC’s sites include an industrial railway focus; timber, gold, coal, and even lighthouses, and so preserve another category of rail heritage. The Department shares the expertise of its heritage program, such as the results of scientific research into materials conservation; stone, wood and metal. These 31 DOC sites are open to visitors: AucklandAuckland Kauri Timber Co tramline, 1925-40, Whangaparapara, Great Barrier Island. Route of bush tram 14km long. One of the most fantastic bush trams ever. Includes 11 sections of incline worked by winch and cable. Tramping skills required. WaikatoWaikato Billy Goat incline, 1922-25, Kauaeranga Valley, Coromandel Forest Park. Route of bush tram 5 km long. A section of track is re-laid.
