/ The O Mahurangi – Penlink Bridge Project: Shaping the Future of Transport

At RDCL, we’re proud to be part of the transformative O Mahurangi – Penlink project—one of the most significant infrastructure developments in Auckland (including the extradosed bridge, a first for NZ).

The result will be a new 7km highway connecting Silverdale, Whangaparaoa and the Hisbiscus Coast that will create a more resilient network and create lasting benefits for local communities.

RDCL was involved in the geotechnical investigation stages, supplying downhole geophysics to the O Mahurangi Alliance, both onshore and nearshore.

Big thanks to our client O Mahurangi Alliance for enabling this partnership and helping us to share this story. Our Auckland team are proud to contribute their skills and expertise to see the project engineered to the highest standard.

A few words from Cam, our CEO today:

"I would like to wish on behalf of RDCL, all the people of Aotearoa a great big “te ra o Waitangi Day”.

Te Tiriti is the reason why I live in Aotearoa. I am grateful for, and love the essential relationship in its entirety, it makes us thoroughly unique and special, even if you don’t know it 😊. I “lean in” and it makes me much better for it.

From an RDCL perspective, we are a business that seeks to empower, energise and help our clients and staff live their best life. We do that by embracing change and difference, we stride towards it and don’t hold back.

We hope you have a great day today; it doesn’t matter if you reflect on the “why” or not. And it doesn’t matter whatever view you currently have.

‘cause it’s not the same ones as your kids, and the future definitely belongs to them.

Our only job is to make it better for all of them.

And if you remember that today, then that’d be having an awesome “Waitangi Day”.

– Cam

What is it like to work in partnership with RDCL?

In this video one of our long-term clients shares why they work with us, how we work in with them, and how Geotechnical and Geophysical expertise has been invaluable to their projects.

A huge thanks goes to Blake Hedley from Tararua Alliance for heading up this video and taking the time to share his perspective. It means a lot.

Partnerships are at the core of everything we do at RDCL, and it is great to hear this reflected in the everyday experience for our clients.

We value each and every one of you – ngā mihi nui and we look forward to continuing our work together. There is lots to be done!

A New Year, with a new and exciting geophysics tool.

After some thorough research we have procured the Syscal Terra, direct from Orleans, France – a new generation Resistivity & IP surveying system. C’est super!

Ready for any conditions, this addition to our near-surface geophysics capability provides RDCL’s clients with unparalleled subsurface resistivity measurement sensitivity and acquisition speed.

What does that mean for you? It means exceptional data quality, gathered faster, helping projects move at pace.

Our team have been excited to commission this tool for a number of upcoming projects across many sectors and investigative applications.

Projects in Water, Energy, Roading & Transport infrastructure, as well as numerous ground instability and site investigations, will all benefit.

RDCL invests in leading technology from around the world, in order to capture the best data for our Aotearoa and Asia-Pacific clients. If you are interested in having a look at the full suite of our tools, here’s a handy link: www.rdcl.co.nz/tools/

Call us today, if you have a project you’d like to discuss.
