SH1B Telephone Road Rail Crossing Improvement

Details

This is a Physical Works contract for The intersection of Telephone Road, Holland Road and Marshmeadow Road is currently closed to traffic due to poor grading over the level crossing.
The scope of this project is to improve the grading at the level crossing and mitigate short stack occurrences. To remedy these issues the works will require pavement overlay, reinstatement of the level crossing surface, minor civil works and renewal of the existing signage and line marking.
KiwiRail will be undertaking track and signalling works as part of the wider project, separate from this contract. WEL may also be undertaking undergrounding or power line relocations at the site.

• Regrading of Holland Road, Telephone Road, and Marshmeadow Road
• Reinstatement of the level crossing surface (asphalt only with Epflex to be installed by KiwiRail)
• Formalising of escape bays
• Pavement widening where required
