1 Introduction

The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden station. The works relating to this Social Impact and Business Disruption Delivery Work Plan (SIBD DWP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project. This SIBD DWP has been prepared by AECOM New Zealand Limited (AECOM) and forms part of the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project. The SIBD DWP forms part of the environmental management controls to manage and mitigate potential adverse social effects of construction. The SIBD DWP outlines specific measures for affected parties as well as crossreferencing other Delivery Work Plans which outline mitigation measures for issues such as noise, air quality and traffic, access and parking. This report follows the recommended structure and content of the Draft Outline Social Impact and Business Disruption Delivery Work Plan (Attachment A to Amelia Joan Linzey’s Statement of Evidence for the CRL Notice of Requirement hearing).
