The Western Corridor generally follows State Highway 1 from the regional border north of Ōtaki to Ngauranga and the North Island Main Trunk railway to Kaiwharawhara. The main east- west connections are State Highway 58 and the interchange for State Highways 1 and 2 at Ngauranga. Long-term vision This Corridor Plan has been developed to support and contribute to the Regional Land Transport Strategy (RLTS), which sets the objectives and desired outcomes for the region’s transport network. The long term vision in the RLTS for the Western Corridor is: Along the Western Corridor from Ngauranga to Traffic congestion on State Highway 1 will be Ōtaki, State Highway 1 and the North Island Main managed at levels that balance the need for access Trunk railway line will provide a high level of access against the ability to fully provide for peak demands and reliability for passengers and freight travelling due to community impacts and cost constraints. within and through the region in a way which Maximum use of the existing network will be achieved recognises the important strategic regional and by removal of key bottlenecks on the road and rail national role of this corridor.

  • Plywood Cut-Outs Support Construction
    15 July, 2016 Plywood Cut-outs Support Construction Plywood construction worker cut-outs that have popped up in a paddock off State Highway 1 just north of Paekakariki have peaked commuter curiosity. They have appeared as part of early works to support construction of the Transmission Gully Motorway and generated a range of theories as to what they are there for. Project Director Boyd Knights sheds some light on the mystery by explaining that the cut-outs act as markers for vehicle operators working inside an area of sand dunes just south of Mackays Crossing. This ‘sand borrow pit’ is being excavated for use as fill for the future alignment of the new motorway. “Much like farmers use scarecrows to protect crops germinating below ground from birds flying overhead,” Boyd Knights says “the life-size plywood cut-outs alert operators to sensitive pieces of equipment which have been placed beneath the foundation treatment layer.” In this instance he says the cut-outs are protecting ‘settlement plates’ which are a critical monitoring and measuring tool supporting current activity known as ‘pre-loading’ which involves excavating sand from the borrow pit and laying it along the area in which the new motorway will be built. “Preloading is all about preparing the area for construction. It literally drains moisture from the soil below the new road embankment and compresses it, to ensure appropriate consolidation and compaction. The settlement plates allow us to measure this compression to ensure the ground has completely settled again prior to laying pavement to minimise any risk of movement or cracking of the new road surface”, Boyd Knights says.

  • Public Notice: Transmission Gully Proposal
    PUBLIC NOTICE Transmission Gully Proposal Application for Notices of Requirement and Resource Consents In accordance with section 149C of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA), the EPA gives notice of the direction of the Hon Dr Nick Smith, Minister for the Environment (the Minister), to refer the matters lodged for the Transmission Gully Proposal (the proposal) to a board of inquiry. The New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA), Porirua City Council (PCC), and Transpower New Zealand Limited (Transpower) (the applicants) have lodged applications for notices of requirement and resource consents (collectively known as matters) with the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA1). In deciding whether the matters are a proposal, or part of a proposal, of national significance, the Minister had regard to relevant factors in section 142(3) of the RMA. In making his decision, the Minister also had regard to the views of the applicants (NZTA, PCC and Transpower), the relevant local authorities (Wellington Regional Council, Wellington City Council, Porirua City Council, Upper Hutt City Council and Kapiti Coast District Council), who consider that the proposal should be directed to a board of inquiry, and the EPA‟s recommendation that the matters be so directed. The Minister considers the matters, as set out below, are a proposal, or part of a proposal, of national significance for the reasons identified in the „Reasons for Direction‟ section below, and has directed that they be decided by a board of inquiry in accordance with Part 6AA of the RMA.

Moved: Diane; Seconded: Anna. 4.0 Business arising from the minutes. 4.1 Water & sewage (&Gas!) reticulation for Pauatahanui Village: Work on the proposed Water and Sewage Reticulation Scheme is still proceeding. PCC is in the process of completing a more detailed design scheme based on the number of properties who have expressed a desire to be connected. Knowing the final number of connections will help price the scheme more accurately. At this stage 7 properties that will not be charged include the school, preschool, public toilets, church, wildlife reserve and the three properties already connected to the mains sewage. .There is also an issue of easements on properties to be connected to allow servicing, but individual property owners will be contacted by PCC regarding this. Powerco/Gashub are said to be linking an existing terminal line at 209 Paekakariki Hill Rd, and bringing this down to the village and linking it up with the Whitby line in Joseph Banks Drive. So as well as sewage and water reticulation there could be mains gas available too to Village residents. Council's engineers are already investigating co-sharing installation of the 3 services, water, sewage & gas. For further information on water & sewage reticulation of the Village contact - Harriet Shelton at [email protected] 4.2 History Project: The NZ Lottery Grants Board has awarded a further $5,000 towards the publishing costs of the history book.

PROJECT OVERVIEW ....................................................................................................................................... DISTINCTIVE FEATURES, ACCOMPLISHMENTS & CHALLENGES .............................................................. KEY BENEFITS .................................................................................................................................................. , AWL FACILITY | RFP | MAY 2018 i SUMMARY The NZ$850 million Transmission Gully project is being delivered as a Public Private Partnership (PPP) between New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) and the Wellington Gateway Partnership. A key part of the new Wellington Northern Corridor, the project is one of the most significant pieces of new road construction in the lower North Island. A key component of the project is the diversion of the Horokiri and Te Puka streams. Approximately 4.1km of stream is to be diverted into a pipe system, while bulk earthworks are undertaken to lift the streambed by up to 20m. The Transmission Gully team has implemented an innovative and environmentally responsible method to manage the challenges associated with constructing a 4-lane motorway through the middle of a valley containing streams with high ecological value. The project has utilised
