New Moveable Lane Barrier

Changing the lanes over on Auckland Harbour Bridge now takes approximately half the time.

A new, more efficient moveable lane barrier and two new machines were installed on the bridge in March 2009 for the New Zealand Transport Agency.

Resolve Group led the design, procurement and installation of the new barrier system for NZTA

Martin Leak of Resolve Group led the establishment of the original barrier system in 1990 and has continued his leadership with this latest installation. Resolve undertook the planning, design, procurement and project management of the new system.

The new barrier machine, designed for flexibility, can perform variable shifts which means the width of the lane is adjustable. It also has adaptable front and rear wheels so it can move sideways in a crab-like fashion. The future proof design can also accommodate further extensions to the traffic tidal flow systems.

Motorists now see a slightly narrower barrier system and new generation machines that have superior efficiency and are able to perform the lane change almost twice as fast, reducing changeover time to 20 minutes.
