Westhaven’s L pier fully replaced – with a sustainable twist
Following the successful replacement of K pier late last year, L pier has now been fully rebuilt after reaching the end of its serviceable life.
Over the past four months, the old structure was dismantled and transformed into a modern, upgraded facility. The project was brought forward, which resulted in cost savings, and was completed safely and efficiently.
In line with Westhaven’s commitment to sustainability, our contractors, Total Marine Services, repurposed most of the removed materials.
A second life for old piers
We’re proud to highlight the innovative reuse of materials from the K and L pier projects – a practical example of how sustainability can deliver real-world benefits for communities across New Zealand and the Pacific.
Instead of sending materials to landfill, much of the dismantled infrastructure has been repurposed:
We’re thrilled to see so many components given a second life – helping to reduce waste and create positive outcomes both locally and abroad.
