The $9.2 million airport upgrade is being funded by the government’s Provincial Growth Fund ($5 million) and the New Zealand Upgrade Programme ($870,000) in partnership with the council, which will fund the remainder. It will see a new terminal built, the car park extended, and the airside apron expanded in order to operate larger aircraft safely.
Airport upgrade project manager Philip King said the laying of these pipes was the first step toward upgrading the airport.
“This is the first of any physical work the community will be able to see and it’s an exciting step we’re able to take in the lead up to the build,” he said.
“It will allow us to upgrade the current services which include a septic tank, future-proofing the area and ensuring we are creating a world-class facility.”
The wastewater and water pipes would be laid starting just beyond the Mobil service station and progressing toward the current airport terminal. The northern shoulder of the road would likely be closed over the section contractors were working on but disruption would be minimal and the road would remain open. This phase of the project was expected to be completed by the end of March next year.
A detailed design is expected to be finalised in early 2021 and terminal construction is expected to begin in mid-2021.

With so much going on this time of year it’s easy to get caught up in the festivities and forget about others, especially those having a difficult time.
Whether it’s an elderly neighbour who lives alone to a family on your street working hard to make ends meet, reach out to someone who could use a little extra joy in their life and remind them what the holiday spirit is all about!
Other ideas include fundraising for a local charity, doing a food or toy drive, organising a ‘Secret Santa’ gift exchange on your street, giving a present to a neighbour who helped to make your 2020 better, or even host a community Christmas lunch.
Let us know how you’re giving back in your community in December by emailing: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz
