The Clearing

Christchurch

In 2021, DO’s geotechnical team conducted an extensive investigation spanning thirty-two hectares between Amberley Beach Road and Carters Road (SH1) – a project named “The Clearing”. Our investigation encompassed test pitting and dynamic cone penetration tests to ascertain ground conditions. The site underwent thorough assessment for natural hazards, in accordance with Section 106 of the Resource Management Act. 

 

This effort led to DO issuing a Statement of Professional Opinion on Land Suitability for Subdivision. This document played a pivotal role in the Resource Consent application by our planning team for Stages 1 & 2 of the 120-lot Subdivision, submitted to Hurunui District Council. 

 

Following the April 2022 granting of Resource Consent, and a tendering process overseen by our civil engineering team, ground was broken by the contractor in October 2022. 

 

Throughout the construction of Stages 1 and 2, DO’s geotechnical team has vigilantly monitored and provided advice on subgrade and earthworks. The earthworks contractor diligently navigated one of the most challenging construction seasons marked by heavy rain, demonstrating their resilience against tough ground conditions
