SUMMARY OF WORKS

Base Civil Ltd completed over 70 individual projects as part of Hamilton City Council’s ongoing safety improvement programme. These works have been carried out across Hamilton’s urban road network, including busy arterial intersections, public transport hubs, pedestrian corridors, and shared-use facilities.

 

SUMMARY OF WORKS

These projects included:

 

•. Intersection and roundabout upgrades incorporating new kerb and channel, reinforced pavements, and installation of tactile pavers and pedestrian facilities.

 

•. Raised safety platforms (RSPs) constructed with coloured thermoplastic surfacing and LED lighting upgrades to enhance visibility and user safety.

 

•. Footpath and cycleway improvements with plain and exposed aggregate concrete and asphalt surfacing, designed for long-term durability and accessibility compliance.

​

•. Stormwater and drainage improvements, including new manholes, subsoil drains, and catchpits, ensuring network resilience and environmental compliance.

 

•. Complex urban staging and traffic management, with projects often undertaken under one way diversions, Stop/Go, or nightworks.

​

We have delivered these projects on sites adjacent to live rail corridors, schools, and commercial zones, coordinating with KiwiRail, public transport services, local residents and Hamilton City Council to ensure safety, minimal disruption to public life, continuity of access for residents and local business, and a successful reputation-enhancing result for all involved.

PROGRAMME CONTROL

We estimate that, across all projects completed as part of HCC safety improvements programme, Base Civil have self-performed 90% of the works. The remaining 10% was contracted to our pre-qualified specialist suppliers.
