The themes articulate the key outcomes sought for 16km of the river and reflect public feedback on what people said was most important to enhance use of the river. PRINCIPLES The six themes are: Access Improving access to along and across the river Recreation NATURAL Promoting the enjoyment of the river ENVIRONMENT development Promoting development that TOURISM embraces the river THEMES Natural Environment Protecting and enhancing the natural environment along the river Arts and Culture Celebrating arts and culture along the river Tourism Promoting and developing tourism along the river dEVELOPMENT RECREATION Themes are intended to be complementary and RIVER PLAN interconnected – for example, a visitor experience PROJECTS may be closely related to promoting art, enhancing accessibility to the river and improving the experience of the natural environment. Many projects will be developed from the themes and the themes are included in the projects for each of the site locations.

    ‘Shovel ready’ Infrastructure Projects: Project Information Form About this Project Information Form The Government is seeking to identify ‘shovel ready’ infrastructure projects from the Public and certain Private Infrastructure sector participants that have been impacted by COVID 19. Ministers have advised that they wish to understand the availability, benefits, geographical spread and scale of ‘shovel ready’ projects in New Zealand. These projects will be considered in the context of any potential Government response to support the construction industry, and to provide certainty on a pipeline of projects to be commenced or re- commenced, once the COVID 19 Response Level is suitable for construction to proceed. The Infrastructure Industry Reference Group, chaired by Mark Binns, is leading this work at the request of Ministers, and is supported by Crown Infrastructure Partners Limited (CIP). CIP is now seeking information using this Project Information Form from relevant industry participants for 1 projects/programmes that may be suitable for potential Government support. The types of projects we have been asked to consider is outlined in Mark Binns’ letter dated 25 March 2020. CIP has prepared Project Information Guidelines which outline the approach CIP will take in reviewing and categorising the project information it receives (Guidelines). Please submit one form for each project that you consider meets the criteria set out in the Guidelines. If you have previously provided this information in another format and/or as part of a previous process feel free to submit it in that format and provide cross-references in this form. Please provide this information by 5 pm on Tuesday 14 April 2020.

  • River Plan Feedback
    Submission No: 235 November 2014 HCC draft River Plan feedback From: - Rob Davidson and Peter Bos, for Cycle Action Waikato. To: - Jacob Quinn and the River Plan Team What do we like about the proposed River plan? 1. The River Corridor Map is Great It clearly indicates access of both the riverpath and the river bridges, throughout the whole length of the area covered by the River Plan. It is vital that people get the River Plan’s ‘Key Themes’ from the River Corridor map. This is essential information, which needs to be quickly accessed. For clarity we request that the River Corridor Map’s Key includes the label (‘Key Themes’) above the six theme logos of: - Access, Recreation, Development, Natural Environment, Arts and Culture, and Tourism (shown vertically). 2. The proposed idea for “pedestrian bridge zones” is a great idea. Furthermore, the proposed idea to “Develop a plan to become a city of bridges” is a good one. These two proposals together have a huge capacity to alleviate the River’s existing Community Severance Effect, experienced by walking, cycling, and the mobility impaired. The river currently separates the eastern residential areas from the CBD commercial and employment zone. The river is a huge barrier to cycling access as the majority of Hamilton City’s bridges are not safe for cycling, nor cycle friendly (not comfortable to ride), as described below: - Whitora Bridge (in the past, when 2-laned) was safe with wide road shoulders to cycle in. However, HCC has recently done a huge amount of damage to cycling safety and connectivity, in three-laning the Whitiora Bridge by removing the bridge’s road shoulders (cycling space) to fit an extra vehicle lane.

  • Potential Shallow Seismic Sources in the Hamilton Basin Project 16/717 5 July 2017
    Final Report on EQC Potential shallow seismic sources in the Hamilton Basin Project 16/717 5 July 2017 Vicki Moon & Willem de Lange School of Science University of Waikato 1. Introduction Following the exposure of a fault within a cutting in a new sub-division development in NE Hamilton, an initial investigation suggested the presence of 4 fault zones within the Hamilton Basin (Figure 1) that represented a potential hazard to infrastructure within the Basin. Hence, the overall aim of the proposal put to EQC was to refine the locations of four potentially active faults within the Hamilton Basin. To achieve this aim, two main phases of geophysical surveying were planned: 1. A seismic reflection survey along the Waikato River channel; and 2. Resistivity surveying to examine the sub- surface structure of identified fault zones. Additional MSc student projects, funded by Waikato Regional Council, were proposed to map the surface geology and geomorphology, and assess the liquefaction potential within the Hamilton Basin. During the course of the project, the initial earthworks Figure 1: Map of the four fault zones that were initially identified from geomorphology for the Hamilton Section of the Waikato Expressway and surface fault exposures, as presented in provided exposures of faults, which resulted in some the original proposal. modification of the project. 2. Methods The two main methodological approaches planned for this project were: 1. A high resolution CHIRP seismic reflection survey along the Waikato River within the Hamilton Basin. A previous study examining the stability of the river banks in response to fluctuating water levels (Wood, 2006) had obtained detailed data on the morphology of the river bed using multi-beam and single-beam echo sounders (MBES and SBES respectively), and side scan sonar.
