Notice of Requirement 2 (NoR 2) NOTICE OF REQUIREMENT FOR A DESIGNATION UNDER SECTION 168(2) OF THE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ACT 1991 (RMA) TO:

Auckland Council

FROM:

Auckland Transport 6 Henderson Valley Road Henderson Private Bag 92250 Auckland AUCKLAND TRANSPORT (an Auckland Council Controlled Organisation) as Requiring Authority under section 167 of the Resource Management Act 1991 gives notice of a requirement for a designation in the Auckland Council District Plan for works being the City Rail Link (CRL or the Project) to be shown as Rail Purposes for City Rail Link (Sub-strata).

1.

SUMMARY The CRL will generally comprise: 

an underground passenger railway approximately 3.4km long (including two tracks and three underground stations) running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Line (NAL) in the vicinity of the existing Mount Eden station; and

an additional 850m of track modifications to the rail network within and adjacent to the NAL.

This Notice of Requirement (NoR 2) is to create a sub-strata designation that relates to land below the ground surface (under road reserve and private property) between Mayoral Drive and New North Road in Newton which is necessary to provide for the construction, operation and maintenance of two rail tunnels, housing of appropriate utility services within the operational tunnels (e.g. telecommunications), and ancillary activities associated with the construction, operation and maintenance of the CRL. The rail tunnels have been designed to accommodate two rail lines (one in each tunnel) for approximately 3.4km (Britomart to Mt Eden). In addition to the future operation and maintenance of these tunnels, the designation proposed by NoR 2 will provide for the construction of these tunnels where it occurs below the ground. Separate designations are being sought for those parts of the construction that will impact on the ground surface including stations. Auckland Transport’s (AT) objective is to secure the rail corridor to enable construction, operation and maintenance. In doing this, the wider objectives of the Project will also be achieved.
