Te Awa Kairangi Skate Park – Design and Construction

Te Wai Takamori o Te Awa Kairangi is a Waka Kotahi, Hutt City Council (HCC) and Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) development working together with partners Taranaki Whānui ki te Upoko o te Ika and Ngāti Toa Rangatira - to make Lower Hutt more vibrant, resilient, and connected.

As part of Te Awa Kairangi the existing Melling skatepark will need to be removed due to the spatial requirements of the roading infrastructure. Te Awa Kairangi secured resource consents in 2022 and a condition of these consents is that the existing skatepark will be, at a minimum, replaced with a similar facility built to modern standards, by the time the existing facility is demolished.

Waka Kotahi has engaged Isthmus (landscape architect) to develop a Skate Park Spatial Plan and performance specification, that will be available when the contract is awarded.

The objective of this tender is to engage a skatepark design-and-construct Contractor, joint venture, or partnership, who will complete detailed design of the skatepark whilst developing cost schedules reflecting design progress for cost guidance. If the design is completed successfully, and subject to the conditions described in this document, Waka Kotahi intends to negotiate with the Contractor to complete the construction of the skatepark under a separate construction contract.
