Watermain and Footpath Infrastructure Project in Hanmer Springs

The project is located in Hanmer Springs, North Canterbury. The proposed watermain runs from Argelins Road intersection through to 148 Hanmer Springs Road, SH7A. The proposed footpath runs from Argelins Road intersection through to 168 Hanmer Springs Road, SH7A to meet existing concrete footpath. The contract will operate as separable portions for the two projects, both being delivered concurrently.

The proposed watermain works consist of installation of approximately 350 metres of DN180 PE 100 PN12.5 and DN63 PE80 PN12.5 rider-main which will be in a common trench with the DN180. The project will also consist of valves, fire hydrants, gate valves, and the connection of all laterals in conjunction with the new mains.

The existing watermain and laterals will be required to remain �live� during construction to maintain services to local residential properties and shall be abandoned with the connection of the new mains to the existing network. The proposed footpath works consist of ground preparation, installation rehabilitation of approximately 45 metres of lime chip footpath and 470 metres of concrete footpath.

This will include wooden batten and concrete edging, respectively, including driveway crossings. The Contractor is to supply and install all valves, fittings and to perform all pipe welding. Hurunui District Council will supply the DN180 PE100 PN12.5, but they shall liaise with the pipe supplier for the timing of the pipe deliveries.

The Contractor will also be responsible for all health, safety and environmental aspects of the project. The Contractor will be responsible for the reinstatement of all surfaces.
