Co-funding the Franz Josef Resilience Project

16 September 2020

Submission form - what do you think?

The West Coast Regional Council is consulting on raising the co-funding required to secure Central Government funding for the Franz Josef resilience project. The project involves raising all existing flood protection assets below the Franz Josef Bridge by 2m. New flood protection assets will be constructed from the Heliport Wall to the 55km Corner, as well as a new wall between Rata Knoll and the Milton and Others stopbank. The raising of the bridge and approaches is also included in the proposal.

This will involve changes to the current Rating Districts for Franz Josef and Lower Waiho. We are seeking your feedback on this proposal.
