Acciona has broken ground on New Zealand\u2019s Warkworth\u2013Te Hana road project, marking the start of construction on a major transport link between Auckland and Northland.<\/p>\n
The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and marks the transition from the planning phase to project delivery.<\/p>\n
The Warkworth\u2013Te Hana project is being delivered through Northway, a public-private partnership between Acciona and Aberdeen Investments, on behalf of the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi. It is described as New Zealand\u2019s largest public-private partnership.<\/p>\n
Acciona is responsible for the project\u2019s design, construction, operation and maintenance. The works include 26km of dual carriageway, twin-bore tunnels more than 1km long through the Dome Valley, 15 bridges and more than 10 million m\u00b3 of earthworks.<\/p>\n
The project has an estimated total cost of approximately NZ$3.6bn (\u20ac1.9bn) over its 32-year construction and operating period. This includes a nominal design-and-construction cost of around NZ$3bn (\u20ac1.5bn).<\/p>\n
The new highway forms a key part of the Northland Corridor Programme, a strategic transport corridor spanning nearly 100km. The programme aims to improve connectivity and support transport links across the northern part of New Zealand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
