I am pleased to share the latest progress on the Whatawhata Tennis Court Lighting Project.Work completed since the last update….
1. The existing poles and lighting fixtures have been removed and responsibly recycled.
2. Directional drilling has been completed, and ducts are now in place to allow for wiring to each pole.
3. Foundation holes have been excavated to the required standards to accommodate the precast concrete bases.
4. Following installation of the foundations, the pre-assembled poles were positioned into the precast bases.
5. Concrete works for the main switch boards were completed today, allowing sufficient time for curing ahead of the incoming cyclone.
Upcoming activities….

2. Installation of wiring through the newly installed ducts.
3. Assembly and connection of the main switch board components.
4. Installation of the new meter at the switch board.
