Waikato Expressway - Huntly Bypass

Delivering a safer and faster connection between Auckland and the Waikato through innovative, sustainable road design.

Waikato Expressway - Huntly Section - Aerial

怀卡托是新西兰丰富的农业和牧区,位于奥克兰以南约90英里(150公里)处. The Waikato Expressway project 将建设一条63英里(102公里)的新走廊,将怀卡托的农业和商业中心与奥克兰连接起来. 这条四车道高速公路有望提高安全性和可靠性,减少拥堵和旅行时间. 它还将通过在奥克兰之间提供更有效的货物和人员运输路线,支持该地区未来的经济增长和生产力, the Waikato and Bay of Plenty.

Jacobs, in joint venture with WSP, delivered the detailed design for the Huntly Section of the Waikato Expressway, a new 9.6-mile (15.5km) four-lane section that includes nine bridges, two interchanges and 41 culverts.

All About the Huntly Bypass

The highly challenging, 陡峭而狭窄的场地范围以及周围生物多样性的陆地和湿地区域和溪流需要创新的设计方法. 该小组开发了另一种诱导沟渠设计,以管理雨水流动,并满足主要利益相关者制定的广泛的生态缓解措施. 诱导沟槽设计在管道上方的沟槽中使用可压缩聚苯乙烯,以有效地“卸载”管道上的路堤重量,并将其转移到周围的地面上.

河桥的长度被延长(与概念设计相比),以跨越整个河段, 哪一种方法既节省了在河漫滩内避免进行地面处理的成本,又为当地居民和环境带来了更好的结果.

The team’s collaborative approach to the preparation of the environmental management plan, extensive ecological enhancement and restoration, outstanding visual and landscape outcomes, and substantial carbon emissions savings, demonstrate a commitment to achieving sustainable value for the client, community, local iwi and all stakeholders.

The team implemented a "Safety in Design" approach, 将整个项目团队的人员聚集在一起,评估项目的整个生命安全风险,然后通过设计过程消除或减轻这些风险. 他们还采用了“Value Plus”的理念,即在每个设计阶段都对设计元素进行询问,以追求真正的价值. Together, 这些方法有助于提供一个更安全的设计概念,减少了超过6美元的项目成本.5 million (NZ $10 million).

亨特利区取得的可持续成果为子孙后代留下了宝贵的遗产.
