Two NZ Transport Agency projects have been recognised recently for their high degree of environmental compliance, each winning an award from the Waikato Regional Council for achieving a high quality of erosion and sediment control on earthworks.
The NZ Transport Agency says the rebuilding of the Manawatu Gorge highway is entering its final stages, with work progressing strongly despite a deluge of rain over the last week.
The NZ Transport Agency says excavation work for the first of the Waterview Connection's two 2.4 kilometre-long motorway tunnels beneath suburban Auckland is on-track to begin next year, with today's ceremonial ground-breaking for a 30 metre deep trench needed for the construction of the project's twin tunnels.
Collaboration and consistent messaging are key ingredients in an initiative launched recently between the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) and Waikato Regional Council. The aim of this work is to assist the NZTA, the region's councils and road safety partners to significantly reduce Waikato's road related fatalities and serious injury crashes.
