On 28 May 2025, TT Concrete attended the Young Contractors Site Visit hosted by Civil Contractors New Zealand (CCNZ) at the Bombay Commercial Vehicle Centre construction site.
Organised and facilitated by Downer, the visit brought together young professionals from the Auckland civil construction industry for a valuable opportunity to connect, learn, and gain insight into a major infrastructure project. The Bombay Commercial Vehicle Centre is one of 12 new inspection facilities being built across New Zealand. These centres will use weigh-in-motion technology embedded in motorways to flag heavy vehicles for compliance checks, improving the efficiency and safety of transport operations nationwide.
During the visit, the Downer team shared key project highlights and challenges, including:
- Construction of large terramesh retaining walls
- Environmental considerations in drainage design
- Coordination and handover process with subcontractors responsible for the on-site building
- The use of solar-powered site offices and rainwater collection systems as part of their sustainability initiatives
TT Concrete actively participates in industry events like this to stay informed about the latest construction technologies and project delivery approaches. The insights gained from this site visit will contribute to our ongoing commitment to quality, innovation, and collaboration in the civil construction sector.
Special thanks to CCNZ and Downer for hosting this informative and inspiring event!
