FY21 Airfield Pavement Renewals

Travellers can continue to enjoy a smooth take-off and landing at Auckland International Airport thanks to the pavement renewals conducted by BPC in four key areas of the Airfield. Taxiway Kilo and Taxiway Bravo 4 involved the reconstruction of approximately 18,127m2 and 3,285m2 respectively of asphalt pavement, including sections of deep lift. The pavement replacement works on Taxiway Kilo were constructed in three separate stages to minimise disruption to the stands on Pier A.

Taxiway Bravo 5 and Taxiway Bravo 6 involved the reconstruction of 166no (6,321m2) Airfield Concrete Pavement Slabs. The works included the replacement and upgrading of existing Airfield Ground Lighting and other affected services and additional minor asphalt works.

BPC completed the project defect-free and one week ahead of programme, despite a Covid lockdown.
