Civil infrastructure plays a fundamental role in allowing our communities to function and thrive, providing critical services such as roading, water supply, wastewater treatment and flood management. We are dedicated to supporting local authorities and clients throughout the entire lifecycle of infrastructure projects, from feasibility studies and design to procurement and construction.
With our expertise in civil engineering, geotechnical, structural, planning, and environmental science, we bring specialised skills for the successful delivery of infrastructure projects that meet the unique needs of each community.
This is the comprehensive management of designing, and constructing water supply, wastewater, and stormwater systems for infrastructure projects. This includes feasibility and options assessment, concept, preliminary and detailed design including network modelling as required. For stormwater, we promote best practice for natural stormwater systems including swales and attenuation ponds.
Given the increasing likelihood of natural hazards and weather events, it is crucial to assess and ready infrastructure projects for forthcoming changes and challenges. This ensures their long-term resilience is maintained.
DO uses civil 3D software for advanced 3D modelling and design in civil engineering projects, enhancing precision and efficiency.
Designing road geometry and pavements, including intersections and roundabouts, to optimise safety, efficiency, and durability. Explore more of our roading infrastructure expertise for the Ravenswood development.
Design Standards Reviews ensures that all designs align with industry advancements and ensure project compliance.
Our experienced environmental science team ensures environmental and public health safety by conducting investigations and assessments to identify and mitigate contamination risks. Discover more on our environmental science expertise.
In-depth analysis of soil and geological conditions, including assessments of liquefaction, slope stability, rockfall risks, and geomorphological mapping for engineering projects. Get in touch with geotechnical engineers if you need help with a project or for more information.
Providing services related to resource management and policy planning, contributing to sustainable and compliant project development. Get in touch with our expert planning team who can guide you through the process.
Creating structurally sound designs with a focus on seismic resistance, ensuring safety and resilience in earthquake-prone regions.
Contact experienced structural team for help with your structural needs.
An ideal way to start a building project – know the ground height and the relationship of buildings and trees and other important features to your boundary right from the start – avoid unwanted surprises – pass this information onto your architect or designer and it will make the entire process a whole lot easier. We offer a wide range of surveying services and industry expertise to deliver fast and accurate results. Explore how we can help you and your project.

Absolutely. DO provides comprehensive support to help with subdividing properties – from consenting and surveying through to engineering design of access-ways (roads and right of ways) as well as ensuring essential services are connected to your property. Explore our latest projects for more information on how we can help.
A serviced plot generally has road access, water supply, power and telecommunication services to the edge of the site. Depending on the location, some developments may have access to reticulated (piped) wastewater or stormwater systems, or these may be dealt with on site.
For an example for a rural development, reticulated wastewater and stormwater systems are unlikely to be available. It’s worthwhile checking with the local authority on what infrastructure is available and what you may need to deal with on your site. Explore our comprehensive development project at Ravenswood for more information on how we can help.
Local authorities have are systems in place for developers to liaise with the Council to provide access to water supply, wastewater, stormwater and roading services.
The local authority will provide information on whether the local facilities have capacity to accommodate this additional development. Typically, utility providers employ similar systems to assess the capacity of their networks. Explore our comprehensive development project at Ravenswood for more information on how we can help.
An ESCP (Erosion and Sediment Control Plan) determines the processes and methods to be used onsite to minimise the potential effects of erosion, sedimentation, and dust generation during construction. Get in touch with our environment and planning experts, who have significant expertise to assist you in developing the plan for a resource consent application and informing the contractor about the minimum requirements.
