Lance Vazey – Oxcon

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.
