Full Feasibility Study Report - Far North District Council

Carparking: could be included in the above contract or let separately with other amenity work.
Toilets: Toilets should for the most part be recognised as public, and part of the cycle way
infrastructure. A contract for toilets that would cover the entire route should be let.
Landscaping: Will be included in the associate track contracts, carpark, or toilet contracts.
Section 4 ‐ Kawakawa to Opua
Railway Corridor (Ch 4200 – 11800): Involves mostly track and heavy bridge maintenance, much of
which will be undertaken by the railway trust for the cost of materials only.
Separate contracts will be required for:
Bridging contracts – of the six bridges requiring work, four are too big for the BOIVRT to
accommodate ranging between circa $20,000 and a 35 span bridge at $700,000.
Tunnel slip repair work and reclamation work – most likely a separate contractor to undertake this
work as a cut to fill operation. Includes some drainage work and landscaping.
Tunnel headwalls and repairs – may involve rock anchors, and concrete work, specific design and a
separate contractor for this.
State Highway widening and turning bay – a roading contractor for this work.
Walking/Cycle track construction – could possibly be the roading contractor or let as a separate
contract.
