Te Kaha Surrounding Streets – project overview and walking tour
The Transportation Group, Canterbury Branch is pleased to present this upcoming walking tour event at the Te Kaha stadium surrounding streets. The event will include speakers from the construction team, Isaac Construction Ltd and Lucas Haining.
This event will highlight the complexity of delivering these upgrades for the transport and water infrastructure, urban design, works staging, stakeholders, integration with the Te Kaha stadium site, and the outcomes achieved.
More project information is available here: Te Kaha surrounding streets : Christchurch City Council
Christchurch’s South-East Central neighbourhood will soon hold the most modern, state-of-the-art, stadium in the southern hemisphere. We need to upgrade the surrounding streets so that they’re prepared for the increased activity the area will experience when One New Zealand Stadium at Te Kaha opens in April 2026.
The Te Kaha Surrounding Streets package of works covers a range of upgrades to the transport and water infrastructure in the streets around the area. The project includes widening footpaths, slower speed limits, landscaping, pedestrian crossings, changing the travel direction of some streets, and upgrades to the water infrastructure. Work is underway and will be completed in 2025.
