SH25A Taparahi Slip Remediation - Project Wrap up

McConnell Dowell with joint venture partner Fulton Hogan and designers Beca and Tonkin + Taylor completed the new Taparahi bridge and reopened State Highway 25A in record time.
Our team has a proven track record of delivering time-critical projects including America’s Cup Project (AC36), Auckland’s Downtown Infrastructure Development Programme (DIDP), and upgrading SH6 and SH20B.
To deliver the SH25A Taparahi Slip Remediation Project, NZTA agreed to a cost reimbursement contract. This allowed our team to focus on the resourcing required to accelerate the remediation. The team also benefited from emergency provisions in the RMA (allowing consenting to be completed after the work was complete), to reduce both the timeframe and operational risk.
