Greater Wellington Regional Council, a public statutory body constituted under the Local Government Act 2002 (GW, we) operates a complex, well-established public transport network across the Wellington region under the brand ‘Metlink’.

We seek a supplier to construct, fabricate, supply and install modular Metlink shelters across the greater Wellington region. We seek a supplier who is well resourced and committed to operating sustainably over the long term. In future, opportunities to participate in broader, shelter-related infrastructure projects and shelter-related civil works across the rail network may become available.

This contract will cover the entire greater Wellington region including Wellington City, Otaki in the north across to Masterton in the east.

The modular Metlink shelter design has been developed over a number of years. The design goes beyond a physical bus shelter. It represents a functional, well-recognised Metlink-branded structure that includes a range of features depending on the location including CCTV, lighting, potential advertising space, Real Time Information (RTI) and safety features. This means that the chosen supplier may need to collaborate with GW suppliers who provide these functions from time to time, to ensure the overall solution is delivered seamlessly and to a high professional standard.
