Shore Road Reserve
Upgrade
SSDM worked alongside Auckland Council, 4sight consulting and Stevenson & Turner, in providing the design for the upgrade of the two aging sand carpet sports fields, cricket nets, and natural cricket block at Shore Road Reserve, Remuera.
The site had known contamination issues, that needed thorough testing and identification, prior to works, which also influenced the design, in regards to cut/fill and reshaping planning.
The reserve is located adjacent to a tidal waterbody and with stormwater and potential flooding issues, required creative design to allow for positive drainage, connecting into the existing public storm water infrastructure, that would flood during each high tide.
Two sand carpet sports fields and a single platform, for potential future development were created on the site, which previously only had two old sand carpet fields. A new ‘five-strip’ Patumahoe clay cricket block, and two artificial cricket pitches were installed. New relocatable lighting, kerb and channel along the car park, and a new seven-bay cricket practice net facility were also installed.
