KiwiRail Hillside Workshop
Stages 1 & 2
Division: Demolition
Client: KiwiRail
Location: South Dunedin
Status: Completed March 2024
Taggart was engaged to deliver the first and second stages of demolition at KiwiRail’s Hillside Workshops in Dunedin, preparing the site for a major redevelopment. Our work included the removal of buildings, foundation demolition, slab crushing, and excavation of contaminated soil. Throughout both phases, safety, environmental care, and efficiency remained a key focus for the team.
With the site now transformed into a large-scale mechanical workshop, supporting wagon assembly and new rail jobs for the region, we’re proud to have played a part in setting the groundwork for KiwiRail’s next chapter.
