Shona Esplanade Reserve

Kauri dieback disease

This urban Kauri forest in West Auckland was at risk from Kauri dieback, and action was required to help control the spread – while ensuring the community could continue to use this space.

This project required 720m of track renewals and upgrades. Due to the complications of working in a Kauri dieback area, we had to import approved track materials into the reserve, using helicopters to reach a section along Opanuku Stream.

We also built new boardwalks and resurfaced existing ones, removed and installed new boxed staircases, and installed new Kauri dieback cleaning stations in the reserve.

I have worked with Envirotech Maintenance for more than 20 years on many different open space projects. Their workmanship was second to none, they were very easy to deal with and communication throughout the project was excellent. Time frames given were realistic and achievable and projects finish on time, with the finished product being of a high standard. They bring experience and offer different options for you to consider. I would have no hesitation in recommending Envirotech Maintenance for any project and will continue to use them again in the future.
