AWARD WINNER

Baylys Beach Boardwalk

Winner, CCNZ Northland Construction Awards 2020/21 (Firth Projects $100k–$500k). For Kaipara District Council, we built a 126-metre timber boardwalk across the dunes to Baylys Beach on 92 piles driven more than six metres into the sand, with retaining walls, timber barriers, bollards, concrete paths, dune protection and native planting, all built for west coast conditions.

“The quality of finish on the completed work is commendable, and despite early concerns by the public over the project, I believe the end result is much appreciated by the community.”

Trevor Butler, Frame Group, Engineer to the Contract
