7. The Board of Inquiry established to assess the planning approvals (resource consents and
designation) for the East West Link is due to release their Draft findings to the EPA on 7
November, which are required to be publically released by 14 November. The full timeline is
outlined below:
Property negotiations are well developed
8. Landowner negotiations commenced in October 2016. Currently 38 out of 200 properties have
been secured on a willing buyer/seller basis, the majority along the SH1 corridor.
9. We have in principle agreement for another six properties with Public Works Act agreements yet
to be concluded. These properties total $98m (purchase price - excludes resale recoveries),
detailed in Attachment C.
10. Public Works Act Section 18 (s18) notices of desire for the required residential properties were
served in May 2017 on 22 private owners (and 1 in July) around the Princes Street area. The s18
notices are valid for 12 months. There are currently 11 owners for the Princess St properties for
which the Transport Agency is preparing the Section 23 (compulsory acquisition) paperwork.
11. There are approximately 60 remaining landowners. The Transport Agency has been preparing
the paperwork to serve s18 notices of desire on all remaining landowners. Nine signed s18
notices have been received from LINZ but are currently on hold.
Procurement for the East West Link
12. An existing professional services contract is in place to complete the detailed design and
procurement of the East West Link. The proposed procurement has been broken down into three
contracts as indicated in Attachment D.
13. Contract 1 is proposed as a $50m traditional contract for the Princess Street Interchange area.
Design is in the final stages and is anticipated to be ready to go to market in early 2018.
14. Contract 2 is proposed to be a circa $500m Competitive Alliance contract focused on the
Onehunga interchange and foreshore works. This contract is expected to go to a shortlisting
process just prior to Christmas.
15. Contract 3 is proposed as a second alliance type procurement and includes flyovers and
interchanges from State Highway 1 through to the foreshore. This package could be up to a
$700m Competitive Alliance contract and is programmed for tender mid-2018.
16. A geotechnical investigation package of work has been prepared to inform the procurement
process and is currently on hold.
