WIN Wellington Site Visit: Whitmore and Bowen Streets Rising Main Upgrade

WIN Wellington is delighted to invite you to our first site visit of the year to The Whitmore and Bowen Streets Rising Main Upgrade.

The Whitmore and Bowen Streets Rising Main Upgrade project involves the construction of a new pumped wastewater pipeline running along Whitmore and Bowen Streets, from the intersection of Featherston and Whitmore Streets to outside the Bowen campus. This complex project involves conventional open trenching, pipe ramming and connections to a pump station and the Main Interceptor Tunnel.

The event will begin with a site induction followed by a design debriefing by Yassasvie (Yass) Sundarapperuma. Visitor teams will then enter the site accompanied by Dave Philipson, who will provide a brief on the construction side of the project. Yass and Dave will share their experience around the design and construction of this essential service, touching on design and construction methodology and lessons learned to date.

We will end the visit with a catchup at a local coffee shop near the site where refreshments will be provided with thanks to our event sponsor, Stantec. 

Please note that the following PPE is required for the site visit:

• Hi-visibility safety vest
• Hard hat
• Steel cap boots

Spaces for this are limited. Please register by Wednesday, 17 February 2021.
