What is now called the Tug Wharf was originally Ferry Wharf no. 2 and was built in 1914 to relieve pressure from vessels for “day trippers” on the original Ferry Wharf. The Tug Wharf now forms part of the pedestrian main promenade between the Railway Station in the north and Waitangi Park and Te Papa in the south.

As part of the management of the Waterfront Precinct, Holmes Consulting Group undertook a structural assessment of the Tug Wharf. The assessment identified 3 groups of structure based on the level of deterioration: Serious, Poor and Fair. The works included within the scope of this RFT are for the structures identified as “Serious” and “Poor”.

The proposed construction is for repair or replacement of some 32% of the hardwood piles, 26 capping beams, 9 stringers and 3 corbels and a few fenders mainly on the breastwork (judged to be in serious or poor condition). The decking of the breastwork is seriously deteriorated. Piles will require jacketing or insertion of new pile sections to replace rot. Wraps, epoxy grouting and flashing will be needed for less seriously deteriorated piles. Capping beams will be replaced alongside existing where necessary with supporting blocks if needed. Stringers and corbels will be treated likewise. Decking of the breastwork will be replaced where necessary with flashing and new asphalt where needed.
