Mauao ("the Mount") is an iconic tourist destination which is walked by over 1,000,000 people per year.
In April 2017, a series of significant storm events caused a large slip on the base track requiring a temporary track to be provided. A permanent solution is required, and a preferred alignment has been identified which would see a 250 m section of the track realigned to avoid failure-prone slopes.
A highly capable supplier is required to complete the design and consenting for the base track remediation project. The proposed works are located in or adjacent to the coastal marine area and the site has high cultural and archaeological significance.
A supplier that can demonstrate their capability and capacity to complete the scope of services is required. The successful supplier will also demonstrate they can apply a robust methodology to the design and consenting process.
We anticipate releasing the tender for this opportunity in early October 2017.
