Option D: Multi-span bridge at Rock Street

A 172m long, five span bridge.
Provides a good walking and cycling connection between urban centres
3900m of pipeline required. This will result in additional ongoing maintenance and pumping costs compared to other bridge options
The bridge will span from stop bank to stop bank
Located in a residential area and would need to be assessed for visual and other impacts
This option would need a business case to gain Waka Kotahi funding, which will delay the project
Estimated cost to the Council: $5.6m to $5.8m (assumes 59% funding from Waka Kotahi)

We will be looking further into the option of putting the pipelines under the Mataura River. Thanks for taking part in this project.
