Town Centre Arterial Road Project Update
Check out the latest update on the Town Centre Arterial Road project.
It’s spring which means one thing (amongst many others) for our crews. Asphalt season has begun! In winter we have a down period of laying asphalt due to the cold temperatures, especially here in Tāhuna Queenstown.
So, now that it’s warming up, and most of our underground works complete, we can begin laying the new road surface along Frankton Road. We will begin rolling out asphalt from one end of the arterial route to the other. We have already begun with the footpath on the lakefront side of Frankton Road and will continue towards the southern side of Melbourne Street in the upcoming weeks.
Here's a rundown of what we’ve completed and what’s coming up for our various worksites along the Arterial route.
Frankton Road |
We’ve laid asphalt on the footpath along the lakefront side of Frankton Road We have prepared the foundations for some of the traffic and light poles and will begin erecting them this month Night works are progressing with building the new road, and we will be returning on Sunday 15 September to prepare the road for asphalt. This involves our crews levelling and compacting the ground whilst testing take place at each stage. |
Suburb Street |
We have completed the preparation for the new pedestrian flush crossing on lower Suburb Street. We will be returning shortly to install the pavers The flush crossings are designed to make it safer for pedestrians by encouraging vehicles to slow down We expect the flush crossing to be complete, and for lower Suburb Street to reopen, by the end of October. |
Melbourne Street |
The stormwater pipe and manhole in front of St Joseph School and Church is complete Kerb preparation in front of Heartland Hotel has also been poured We have begun the road preparation on the southern side of Melbourne Street, which will continue through the school holidays We will be preparing light pole foundations from St Josephs through to Henry Street We will shortly begin to install street furniture, light poles, and the final landscaping along Melbourne Street. |
Sydney Street |
All garden beds are completed and ready at the intersection of Sydney and Melbourne Street We’ve completed the asphalt on the footpaths at the intersection We will be returning to the intersection of Sydney and Melbourne Street to construct the new road, week of 30 September. This work is expected to take approximately 4 weeks. |
Beetham Street |
The retaining wall construction is progressing and on track We have installed street light ducting in the ground We will shortly begin on the footpath preparation and light pole foundations. |
Henry Street/Malaghan Street/Ballarat Street |
We have installed power underground on Henry Street The kerb and channel has been poured along the street We are now focusing on footpath preparations, alongside light pole foundations between Ballarat and Malaghan Street. Once this is complete, we will lay asphalt. |
What’s coming up
|
Gorge Road / Turner Street: after ski season the team will return to install a traffic island, traffic signals, street furniture and planting, along with a safe crossing on Turner Street New traffic signals will be installed at the intersections of Gorge Road/Henry Street, Sydney Street/Melbourne Street, and Melbourne Street Flush crossings for Dublin, Suburb and Turner Streets: these crossings allow people to safely cross the road and are provided at non-signalised intersections. This is currently expected to happen in October Lower Ballarat Street stormwater upgrade: we’re boosting the resilience of the overall stormwater network by laying 90 metres of upgraded stormwater pipes. This will ensure we can better manage uphill stormwater runoff particularly during more intense rainfall events associated with a changing climate. As part of this work, we’ll build a headwall by the bridge at Horne Creek to support and protect the stormwater pipe. The timing of this work will be confirmed and communicated soon The final road surface: we’re still planning the best way to do this and will share more soon Above ground installations such as street furniture, planting, line-marking and signage. |

As always, our top priority is the safety of all residents and commuters, so we kindly ask for you to please follow the traffic and pedestrian signs and take extra care at all times. We will keep you informed of any updates or adjustments to this schedule.
