Aotea Station
Once completed, the Aotea Station will include platforms, lifts, escalators, rooms for housing stations and tunnel services equipment, an entrance building at Wellesley Street, two additional entrance buildings at Victoria Street, a Plenum at Kingston Street, services, internal and architectural finishings, structural fittings, utilities services diversions and connections. Given the nature and scale of the Aotea Station construction, works will be undertaken in a staged manner. These construction works have been authorised by three separate Outline Plan Packages, with construction works expected to continue until the completion of the Project in 2024. The Aotea Construction Works have been staged as follows: Table 1: Staging of the Aotea Construction Works
