Work to resume on the Northern Corridor Improvements Project

Work is set to resume on the Northern Corridor Improvements Project after New Zealand moved to COVID-19 Alert Level 3.

Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency has been working closely with the Northern Corridor Improvements Alliance and Construction Health and Safety NZ, to plan for a safe return to work following the end of the Level 4 lockdown period.

While some essential state highway maintenance work has continued during the lockdown in order to keep the network safe for the movement of essential goods and to support lifeline functions, all non-essential maintenance work and capital project work was stopped with the move to Alert Level 4 on March 26.

At Level 3, a range of new measures are now in place including restricted access to the construction site and requirements for workers to maintain physical distancing.

One of the ways our project team are keeping staff safe is by creating ‘work bubbles’ that limit the numbers of people interacting with each other. Work bubbles are like shifts, each bubble enters the site and takes breaks at different times.

All office staff and those who are not physically required to be on site will continue to work from home until further notice.

Alongside staff safety, our priority is to ensure that the construction site remains safe. We will keep safe traffic management in place and the appropriate environmental controls.

Please respect physical distancing and do not approach our teams or enter our work sites. Please take care travelling through the project area. Thank you for your patience.
