Hunua Road Public Watermain Upgrade

Papakura, Auckland | Public Water Infrastructure | EPA Watermain Upgrade

Civilink NZ delivered the civil construction works associated with a major public watermain upgrade along Hunua Road in Papakura. The completed scope involved approximately 462 metres of new 355 mm OD SDR11 PE100 watermain, installed using directional drilling and targeted open excavation.

The works included new sluice valves, fire hydrants, connection infrastructure, thrust blocks, service protection and corridor reinstatement. Delivery was carefully staged within a live road corridor, with public-network tie-ins coordinated with the authorised network operator.

Key Challenges

  • Working around multiple live underground services
  • Installing and handling large-diameter PE100 pipe
  • Maintaining safe access through a busy transport corridor
  • Staging works to support authorised live-network connections
  • Undertaking night works to reduce disruption to road users and businesses

Project Outcome

The project provided substantial new watermain capacity along the corridor, including large-diameter PE100 pipework, isolation valves, fire hydrants and connection points for the existing public network.
