Hillock to be demolished near Wellington Airport
Stuff - Wellington: 18-Aug-2023
Mountains - or more correctly, a hillock - are being moved at Wellington Airport to free up land for the airport to expand.
The hillock, between Stewart Duff Drive and the boundary fence at the southern end of the airport, will be demolished in a joint project between Wellington Airport and Wellington City Council.
The 10,000 square metre site will be used for the airport’s new ground staff workshop while the old workshop site is used for Wellington City Council’s new Moa Point sludge minimisation facility.
[A nice project for a man who - as a boy - would have played for hours in the garden or sandpit with Tonka trucks; trailers; loaders; and scrapers....
Although in real life, not a great impact on the environment when you think about the truck movements... ~40km one-way and about 1hr travel outside of morning and afternoon commuter congestion....]
