Glen Innes to East Tamaki

VSL Landscapes are our “go-to” Landscape planting and maintenance subcontractor. We’ve completed several projects with VSL, most recently the $30m GI2TD Shared Path for Waka Kotahi of which they undertook over 3.5 Hectares of new native planting spread along 2.5km site, they are also carrying out the 5-year maintenance across the site. GI2TD is a difficult to access project, with challenging terrain and was adjacent to very dense weed and exotic species. Programme constraints meant planting was largely completed out-of-season, VSL delivered the works on a tight timeframe while ensuring plant survival and quality product was opened to the public on time. VSL’s management and site teams have handled the challenges with professionalism and care. They are well organised, easy to communicate with communicate and their technical expertise helped our client with alternative designs, ultimately delivering on their promise as a best-in-class landscaping contractor.

Really great communication from the team about delivery’s coming in and what was required of us to cater for these, also when we let them know about project requirements, they ensured that their subcontractors knew this information and were following the rules.

Really great outcome and deliver on promise, everything looked amazing and was according to the plan, public were very happy with the space. VSL went above and beyond to ensure all the works were completed on time and to a really great standard.

VSL have been involved in the full Landscaping scope on the Glen Innes to Tamaki Drive project working with OxconCLL.

They have successfully completed the planting works, amidst challenging terrain and access restrictions to complete the work in time for our project opening. VSL responded well to our onsite requirements for both safety and quality and this was reflected in the final outcomes onsite. The VSL management team co-ordinated well with our team onsite to work together towards our project opening goal.

The VSL team is now into full maintenance mode on the project and the planting is responding well to the teams efforts onsite, with positive feedback received from members of the public during every visit to the Pathway since opening.
