Ka Huanui a Tahuna is an alliance established in November 2020 between Queenstown Lakes District Council (QLDC) and Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency, along with four design and construction companies - Beca, WSP, Downer and Fulton Hogan. The programme of works includes Queenstown Town Centre Street Upgrades, Queenstown Town Centre Arterial - Stage 1, Lakeview Infrastructure, NZTA's Queenstown Package, and Wakatipu Active Travel Network.
This exciting and challenging programme of work aims to improve safety and accessibility, enable an improved public transport system, provide more options for walking and cycling, and benefit the community and its visitors.
4 years into an 8-year programme of works, the focus is moving to NZTA's Queenstown Package as part of the upgrade of the Roads of Regional Significance.
