In preparation for the next stage of reclamation, starting mid-April, we recently re-opened our Gollans Bay Quarry.

The work for this stage will include quarrying in Gollans Bay, dredging part of the reclamation footprint, the land reclamation itself and the construction of a new wharf. Check out the project page here for more info.

Our quarry at Gollans Bay will provide most of the fill material, with less than five per cent being building demolition rubble.

This is the first time the quarry has been used since the Christchurch earthquakes in 2011. Most of the work will be regular blasting, earthworks and transport of material down to the reclamation.

HC&R, a joint venture between Heron Construction and C&R Developments, will undertake the works for LPC.
