2 hours ago | 49 views

Minister for Rail Winston Peters has welcomed KiwiRail's identification of three potential construction partners—Acciona, Downer/HEB joint venture, and Martinus Rail—to conduct a design sprint for a cost-effective Marsden Point Rail Link. This 19-kilometre railway is deemed essential for Northport, a key port for New Zealand’s export future, and aims to provide a more accurate and lower-cost estimate than previous government allocations. The companies will refine designs focusing on reducing earthworks, optimizing construction, and exploring various technical options to enable confident government funding decisions.
