Dive Crescent Carpark Upgrade
Revitalising a key waterfront space in Tauranga
The Dive Crescent Carpark Upgrade was a large-scale redevelopment project in the heart of Tauranga’s waterfront district.
Crossroads Civil was responsible for delivering full site redevelopment, from demolition and earthworks to paving, lighting, and landscaping, transforming the area into a modern, accessible, and community-friendly public space.
Working alongside Tauranga City Council, the project demanded strong coordination across multiple civil and infrastructure elements to ensure quality, safety, and environmental compliance throughout the 18-month build.
