Project overview

Widening Brigham Creek Road to accommodate walking, cycling and public transport. Brigham Creek Road is a key East-West connection through Whenuapai, providing access to State Highway 18 at its eastern end and State Highway 16 at its western end. 

The nature of the proposed works includes: 

  • Widening of Brigham Creek Road to an upgraded urban arterial with active mode facilities.  

  • Upgrades to intersections and tie-ins with Totara Road/Brigham Creek Road, Trig Road and Kauri Road. All intersections along Brigham Creek Road are proposed to be signalised, with the exception of the intersection of Brigham Creek Road and Trig Road which is proposed as a roundabout intersection.  

  • Tie-ins with existing roads, stormwater dry ponds, wetlands and culverts.  

  • Batter slopes to enable widening of the corridor, and associated cut and fill activities. 

  • Vegetation removal along the existing road corridor. 

  • Other construction related activities required outside the permanent corridor including the re-grade of driveways, construction traffic manoeuvring and construction laydown areas.

Project status and anticipated construction timeframes

This project is currently in the appeal period. Submitters had 15 working days in which they could appeal to the Environment Court, against the whole or any part of the decision from AT. Appeals are under Section 174 of the Resource Management Act 1991.  

 

During this process AT works together with appellants to come to a resolution.  If both parties can't resolve the appeal independently, the Environment Court can appoint a mediator to facilitate the conversation. If a resolution can't be reached through court assisted mediation, then an Environment Court hearing will take place, and the Environment Court will issue a decision on the outcome.

There is currently no funding for detailed design or construction of this project. We anticipate the project will be delivered sometime within the next 15 years in line with Auckland Council’s land release strategy.
