Waimate West Water Supply Reticulation Renewal (Palmer Road)

⁠⁠⁠Overview

South Taranaki District Council (STDC) is seeking a contractor to renew a section of the water supply reticulation network at the intersection of Skeet Road and Palmer Road, as part of its ongoing Road Rehabilitation Programme. The renewal is being undertaken in conjunction with planned intersection concrete pavement works, providing an opportunity to replace ageing water infrastructure while avoiding future excavation and reinstatement costs.

Scope

The scope includes:

• Decommissioning or abandonment of approximately 68m of existing DN200 asbestos cement (AC) water main located on Palmer Road at its intersection with Skeet Road
• Installation of a new DN250 HDPE PE100 SDR11 PN16 water main
• Supply and installation of all necessary valves, fittings and associated appurtenances required to integrate the new pipeline into the existing water supply network while maintaining continuity of service to customers
• Installation of the new pipeline using open trenching or trenchless methods, such as Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), subject to site conditions, traffic management requirements, existing underground services, and approval by the Engineer
• All excavation, drilling, pipe installation, network connections, testing, reinstatement, flushing, pressure testing, disinfection, and commissioning necessary to place the new water main into service
• Full reinstatement of all disturbed areas outside the road rehabilitation footprint
• Provision of as-built drawings, asset data, componentisation records, and supporting quality assurance documentation in accordance with Council requirements to support ongoing asset management and future maintenance
