Project overview
The development at 67–69 Pupuke Road delivers a 16-lot residential subdivision on a steep, bush-clad site overlooking Birkenhead. The site includes a significant ecological area at its lower extent, requiring a sensitive approach to earthworks and infrastructure design within a constrained natural environment. Calthom provided civil engineering design and construction observation services, supporting the delivery of the subdivision and associated infrastructure. Our involvement focused on managing the challenges of steep terrain and constrained servicing, including substantial stormwater infrastructure with large underground detention tanks, a common accessway, and the coordination of diverted public wastewater assets, resulting in a practical and compliant outcome for a complex brownfield site.
