BONUS: Building Resilient Infrastructure Along New Zealand’s Coast

BONUS: Building Resilient Infrastructure Along New Zealand’s Coast

In this bonus episode, Host Angie Dickson, President of the Inogen Alliance and EVP of Antea Group USA, speaks with Chris Perks of Tonkin + Taylor about the Te Ara Tupua Cycleway project in New Zealand.

Chris explains how the team used innovative, nature-based design—like an artificial reef for stormwater treatment—to reduce costs, protect local ecosystems, and enhance community resilience. He also shares how New Zealand’s approach to infrastructure combines environmental stewardship, cultural respect, and creative engineering to achieve lasting impact.

Guest Quote:

“From someone that’s putting in some aggregates, some asphalt, and some concrete, we’re actually stimulating environmental benefits and wildlife growth. That’s pretty cool.” – Chris Perks
