New Ōpaoa River Bridge
Deputy Mayor Terry Sloan has visited the new Ōpaoa River Bridge site to see the project’s progress.
An NZTA project team has been busy installing the main piles to support the bridge and driving seven large steel cylinders 26 metres into the ground, which will be filled with reinforced concrete.
Over the next few months, columns will be constructed and 72 concrete beams trucked from Christchurch will be craned into place.
Discussions are also underway with mana whenua iwi Rangitāne, Ngāti Rārua and Ngāti Toa on landscaping the new entrance into town.
The new bridge is expected to open in mid-2020.
