01 / Project overview
The brief
The Waitākere Resource Recovery Park supports the recovery and reuse of materials that would otherwise go to waste. ACH contributed to Stage 1 of the development, which included a new retail shop, a construction and demolition materials shop, and a workshop.
The project required integrated site infrastructure to support the safe, efficient movement of customers, delivery vehicles and materials, while managing stormwater and other essential services.
02 / Our approach
How we delivered it
Site infrastructure and access
The site layout was developed to support efficient day-to-day operations, with separate access routes for customers and delivery vehicles. Dedicated parking and loading areas, robust foundations and heavy-duty pavements were designed for the demands of a busy facility.
Stormwater and water management
Swales, rain gardens and treatment devices manage runoff and remove contaminants before discharge. Rainwater harvesting reuses collected roof water across the site.
Essential services
Wastewater collection, potable water supply and storage, and fire protection. Landscaping used native, drought-tolerant planting to support local biodiversity and reduce water demand.
03 / The outcome
“Stage 1 brought together the buildings, access arrangements and supporting infrastructure needed to operate a practical, service-focused resource recovery facility, with durable infrastructure for long-term use.”
