Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Australasian Tunnelling Society, I invite you to attend the 14thAustralian Tunnelling Conference to be held in Auckland, New Zealand, in March 2011.

Tunnelling methods and equipment have undergone a quiet revolution during the firstdecade of the 21st Century. Tunnel boring machines of ever larger diameters, coveringthe full spectrum of soil and rock conditions, are appearing. In the mined tunnel arena,computer guided equipment including road headers and drilling and bolting machinesare available as is robotic sprayed concrete equipment. All of the foregoing lead toincreased productivity and reduced tunnelling costs. In the design offices, numericalmodelling software has permitted improved predictions of soil and structureinteraction, whilst computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software has facilitatedassessment of a wide range of fire and ventilation scenarios for transportation tunnels.Simultaneously, the project procurement practices have continued to evolve.

The Conference theme “Development in Underground Space” encompasses theseadvances through Keynote addresses each day and well varied session topics. Manyrecent case studies are also covered, providing insight into recent experiences andissues successfully addressed.

A truly European flair will be enjoyed through the participation of Professor GiovanniBarla, Turin Polytechnic University, who is one of the Keynote speakers at theConference. Giovanni never fails to infuse his audience with his enthusiasm and lovefor underground soil/rock mechanics and we look forward to his address. Giovanni willalso lead a pre-conference short course; an opportunity for immersion into Europeanthinking and approaches. Many advances have been achieved across the Asian sceneand Alan Morris, Project Manager for the XRL Tunnels, Mass Transport RailwayCorporation, Hong Kong will provide an overview of these while also outlining his viewson where our industry finds itself in terms of technical developments. Our third Keynotespeaker, Professor Arnold Dix, Chairman of the ITA Contractual Practices group andAustralian delegate to PIARC in tunnel ventilation, safety and environment will addressoperational issues in particular in vehicular tunnels.

The Organising Committee believe that, as with preceding triennial events, thecolloquium will again be the showcase event of the industry. A time to contribute, atime to calibrate yourself against your peers as you consider the state-of-the-art oftunnelling presented and most importantly, a time for making and renewing friendships.

In addition, Auckland weather in early March should be balmy; you will not regretjoining us and perhaps staying on a bit longer.

Sincerely,Evan GilesConference Chair, 14th Australasian Tunnelling Conference 2011

PRE-CONFERENCE TOUR – Expression of Interest onlyWine and Waiheke Please indicate on Registration Form (✔)

Sunday 6 March 2010

Before the 14th Australasian Tunnelling Conference begins we offer an experience ofwhy Auckland is known as “the city of sails” – an opportunity to take part in a full daywine tour of Waiheke Island, which is a 30 minute ferry ride across the tranquilHaurakei Gulf. Having enjoyed the fresh, ozone enriched sea air, you will be takenthrough some of the natural beauty of the island to experience renowned viticulture,enjoying at an appropriate time some of the fruit of the vines together with somememorable cuisine. Your return will provide unforgettable views from the sea of theheart of the city. The Conference Committee aims to share the local surrounds with youand your partner and a tour will be held if minimum numbers are obtained.

Further details will be provided as the Conference preparation progresses and toexpress your interest tick the tour option on the booking form and we’ll get back to youwith details as soon as we can! Or you can email direct to [email protected].

We look forward to sharing this experience with you.

PRE-CONFERENCE SITE TOURState Highway 1 Victoria Park Tunnel, Auckland Monday 7 March 2011

The Victoria Park Tunnel is New Zealand’s highest priority state highwayupgrade under construction. The $340 million project will remove thelast major traffic bottleneck on Auckland’s central motorway networkand unlock the potential of other significant investment in recentyears to improve travel reliability to and around the Auckland CBD.

The total length of the project is 2.2 kilometres, from the WellingtonStreet motorway over bridge on State Highway 1 to the AucklandHarbour Bridge. The project involves the construction of a 450m cutand cover tunnel adjacent to the existing Victoria Park Viaduct toprovide three northbound lanes. The Viaduct will be reconfigured tocarry four southbound lanes. Also, the motorway through St MarysBay will be widened to provide five traffic lanes in each direction anda shoulder bus lane.

Work started in late 2009. While the project is due to be completed by mid-2012, it is planned to have the tunnel structure built by the time of the 2011 Rugby World Cup.

The project is being delivered by the Victoria Park Alliance comprising the NZ Transport Agency (owner), Fletcher Construction (builder), Beca (designer), Higgins Contractors(traffic & pavements), Parsons Brinckerhoff (system design).

Time: 10.00 am – 1.00 pm

Max number: 30 people (book early to avoid disappointment)

Notes: Attendees are to provide their own closed toe shoes, dress for dirty conditions, and PPE equipment will be provided.

Cost: A$25.00

To register for this tour, please complete the appropriate section of the Registration Form.

Venue: SKTCITY Auckland Convention Centre, 88 Federal Street, Auckland

Time: 1.30 pm – 6.00 pm

Min number: 20

Cost: A$330
