Air Quality Delivery Work Plan
3.
Environmental Setting
This section of the AQ DWP describes the environment surrounding the main works site in terms of meteorological influences on the transport of air contaminants and sensitivity of adjacent activities to those discharges.
3.1 Site Description The main works will be undertaken near the existing Mt Eden Station and along the NAL, in an existing urban environment. The main works area is generally bounded by the NAL (south), State Highway 1 (east), Dominion Road (west), and Nikau Street (north) (refer Figure 3-1). The main works will include construction activity along Nikau Street, Ruru Street, Porters Avenue, Fenton Street, Haultain Street, Ngahura Street, Flower Street, Shaddock Street, Mt Eden Road, Normanby Road, Boston Road and Nugent Street. Additional areas of land outside the CRL designation boundaries may also be required to provide construction access to the NAL corridor.
