Mt Eden Main Works Description 2.1 Overview of Works
The main works involve construction along several active work fronts concurrently within the Mt Eden area at any one time, to enable the redevelopment of Mt Eden Station and establish the CRL tie-ins to the NAL. Works will be carried out in a staged fashion. The construction staging and methodologies are described in greater detail in the CEMP. Within the main works area, there are already other works occurring in accordance with the Mt Eden Enabling Works (OPW60350039) and Normanby Road Early Works (OPW60351423) outline plan packages. This CNV DWP has been prepared to address the cumulative effect where the main works and those works overlap each other. This CNV DWP has been prepared to address the entire main works area as outlined in Figure 2-1. In summary, the main works involve: • •
• • • • • •
Ground improvements, in the form of deep soil mixing (contiguous piling and grout injection), within the NAL corridor between Mt Eden Road Bridge and Normanby Road; Bulk excavations and construction of retaining walls along the NAL to provide for the rail trenches and installation of new tracks. The excavation will encounter basalt, which will be removed via rock-breaking and blasting. In places, softer ground conditions are anticipated to be encountered, which may require the use of sheet piles; Construction of the eastern and western crossover structures that enable the CRL rail lines to tie-in to the NAL; Construction of the Porters Avenue and Fenton Street pedestrian and cyclist bridges. Construction of the Normanby Road grade separation bridge, including regrading of Normanby Road and realigning the Boston Road roundabout; Redevelopment of the existing NAL platform; Construction of the CRL platform and the foundations and building structures for the Mt Eden Station building and the ventilation building; and Operation of the TBM, including the conveying of spoil material from the tunnels and the refuelling and general maintenance of the TBM within CSA 4.
2.2 Site Description The main works will be undertaken in the vicinity of 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). 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.
