Trees and Vegetation Delivery Work Plan
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 (NAL) in the vicinity of Mt Eden Station. The CRL also involves the construction of two new underground stations at Aotea and Karangahape and a redeveloped Mt Eden Station (refer to Figure 1-1). The design and construction of the CRL infrastructure between Aotea and Mt Eden Stations is being delivered by the Link Alliance. This Trees and Vegetation Delivery Work Plan (TV DWP) has been prepared in relation to early works along and in the vicinity of Normanby Road, hereafter referred as the ‘Normanby Road early works’.
