Project summary
Hood Aerodrome riverbank protection
Greater Wellington’s flood-resilience page lists Hood Aerodrome as site 8. The project entry describes work to protect the southern end of the runway from gradual erosion of the true left bank of the Waingawa Awa, with a revetment along the bank beside the runway. The entry reports the project complete; at the supplied evidence observation dated 2 October 2026, no later status is verified.
The wider programme section says Greater Wellington and MBIE’s Regional Economic Development and Investment Unit, Kānoa, agreed to co-fund 16 projects; Hood Aerodrome is listed among the sites, but no site-specific allocation is stated. The page says all projects have resource consent, without giving Hood-specific consent details. A shared section says Mills Albert was appointed lead contractor for the flood-resilience projects, but does not identify a Hood-specific contract or assignment.
Evidence scope: the supplied context includes the complete Hood section and selected shared sections, not the whole page or other site entries. The linked map, video and page media were not reviewed.
Evidence limits and unknowns
Exact start and completion dates, final/as-built design, revetment dimensions and materials, cost, and separate commissioning evidence are not supplied; the project entry only reports completion.
No Hood-specific contractor or contract package, funding allocation, or funding amount is identified.
The page states that all projects have resource consent but supplies no Hood-specific consent number, conditions, or date.
No town, coordinates, or more precise site boundary is supplied.
The April 17, 2025 update concerns Akura Road, and the May 9, 2025 update concerns Fuller’s Bend; neither is a Hood Aerodrome milestone. The May 29, 2026 update is associated with a separate community section and is not identified as a Hood milestone.
The supplied evidence is not complete-document coverage or independent corroboration. Other project sections, linked material and excluded media were not reviewed.
