If you like to keep up to date with progress on the dam – you need to check out this drone footage from last month. It gives a great overview of what has been achieved so far! https://t.co/9NLceCTB0S
Latest photos showing progress on the first diversion of the river to allow construction of the culvert on the right side. This will redirect the water so concrete work can be completed. More info to come!
2Progress Update: foundation mapping for another section of the plinth (link between the ground and the dam); the first concrete was poured within the dam footprint, and the final beams were lifted into place on the first of the three access bridges. All go!
3Telescopic crawler time! Our joint venture contractors Fulton Hogan Nelson/Taylors Contracting Co Ltd have the first 'telescopic crawler' crane in NZ - which will allow easier traversing of the steep terrain around the dam. More info: https://t.co/nkU0bQX1jC
