Whenuapai milestone

Brian Perry Civil’s team have achieved another major milestone on the Whenuapai Airbase project with the handover of Stand 10.

The New Zealand Defence Force engaged BPC to demolish and replace over 16,500m2 of airfield hardstand at the Airbase. Around 7,350m3 of new concrete pavement is being poured and a new 900mm drain installed. Since mobilising in September 2023, the team have completed over 80% of the work. The final stage is on track for completion before the end of this year.

BPC Senior Project Manager Phil Wild says it’s a privilege and pleasure working with NZDF to deliver this critical infrastructure. “The level of collaboration and pragmatism has helped consolidate our team culture and contribute to our health and safety performance, which remains at lost time injury and first aid injury free.”
