EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The project delivery status report is presented regularly to the Services and Organisation
Committee. The report highlights projects that have been either completed or nearing completion
and a general overview of projects being delivered.

This report also provides a capital project delivery spreadsheet (Attachment 1) that gives a
general overview of the projects’ status and general performance as the projects are delivered.
The capital delivery project dashboard has been incorporated into Attachment 1 to demonstrate
an individual project’s status and overall delivery status.

RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Asset Planning Coordinator to the Services & Organisation
Committee Meeting dated 19 April 2016 providing an update on the status of the projects being
delivered in the 2015/16 Capital Works Programme.



REPORT
The purpose of this report is to inform the Services & Organisation Committee of the overall
status of the capital works programme projects. The report also provides an opportunity to
highlight and discuss projects within the programme and also confirm the completion of projects
as they are delivered throughout the 2015/2016 financial year.

1.                     Major Projects

The project delivery approach for 2015/16 is to have the majority of projects well underway
and/or construction nearing completion towards the end of the third quarter or early in the fourth
quarter of the financial year. This approach is to ensure that the majority of projects are finalised
and resources are ready for the next financial year’s capital programme. There are currently 126
active projects in the 2015/16 capital programme as of 31 March 2016 (including the carryover
projects from 2014/2015) with a value of $34.3m and not including Emergent Works reserve,
$1.08m).

The major project and focus of project delivery for the financial year was the planning, design and
commencement of construction for the Dr Pages Road upgrade. This project is nearing
completion and is currently on target for completion in early May 2016, subject to favourable
weather conditions. In addition to this, the Munna Point Bridge rehabilitation with a budget of
$3.1m is also nearing completion and is expected to be completed by the end of May 2016.
