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 involves the construction of two new underground stations at Aotea and Karangahape, and a redeveloped station at Mt Eden (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 Tree and Vegetation Delivery Work Plan (TV DWP) has been prepared in relation to the Mt Eden Enabling Works (“the Project”).
