Overview:
The Te Awa Cycleway is both a regional and district significant project. The Tamahere Section not only serves as a key link between Waipa District in the south and Hamilton City in the north, but also as a key community link for Tamahere residents.
The cycleway will be constructed in Council road reserve. Small sections of private property have been acquired in order to compete the desired route and to achieve the project outcomes. The area is largely dominated by larger lifestyle blocks, however a new commercial development with shops, cafe and bar is largely constructed, new sports fields have been laid and a retirement village is also under construction (Tamahere Country Club). All of this adds to what is a growing and vibrant community.
Stakeholders have been engaged via a number of methods, including letter drops and utilising the local Community Committee to share information. Residents in some areas have been consulted with one-on-one specifically were private property is either required for the project. The community is very aware of the cycleway to be constructed and are embracing the increased amenity and safety benefits that will be generated. The local school has a role of over 400 children and safe access and facilities are sought after.
The scope of this RFT is to identify a contractor capable of constructing the new cycleway through Tamahere from Riverglade Drive to Wiremu Tamihana Drive, a length of approx. 2.4km. The project includes the following elements:
· Earthworks
· Drainage
· Concrete path (2.5m - 3.0m wide)
· Pavement and surfacing (driveway upgrades utilising AC)
· Traffic services - signage and marking
· Landscaping
· Traffic Management
· Community liaison
· Liaison with key stakeholders.
