Blue Mountains Campus Dilemma

Michael from Trentham

The KiwiRail control centre at the Blue Mountains Campus, Wallaceville is now operating in its new building and a part of the refurbished and restored Buddle Building is completed and part or all its ground floor of the four storey section of the building iis now occupied.
But it wiil be a few months before the remainder of Buddle Building is ready for occupancy including the cafe which will service both staff people in the campus and the public in general.

Next on the list of refurbisment etc are the two historical multi-storied buildings and the timber construction of two -four large single storied buildings.

But the developers are considering making some of the historical buildings residential instead of all commercial or doing a mix of residential and commercial elsewhere in the complex.

So far only KiwiRail and Ministry of Business Development etc have taken up tenancy. I believe TransDec are considering shifting part of their operation to BMC partially in favouring linking its connection with KiwiRail. Transdec operates the suburban railways in the Wellington and Wairarapa regions.

Buddle Building was proposed to have been available last December and according to a senior construction person on site, its delay is not due to material shortages nor staffing shortages.
