The Karanga Plaza Harbour Pool is a landmark project transforming Auckland’s Viaduct Basin into a vibrant, accessible waterfront destination.
The pool features a 33-meter-long saltwater swimming area, complete with four roped lanes for lap swimming and a dedicated section for casual bathing. A purpose-built jumping platform adds an element of fun, while floating pontoons ensure safety by providing a clear boundary between swimmers and maritime traffic.
Lautrec Consulting Engineering – Touch
Lautrec Consulting played a role in the Karanga Plaza Harbour Pool project, providing specialist engineering expertise in designing the balustrade systems surrounding the pool. These balustrades are a crucial safety feature, offering structural support while maintaining clear views of the stunning waterfront.
The result is a robust, visually appealing barrier that enhances public safety without compromising the open, inviting feel of the plaza.
Lautrec Consulting’s involvement underscores the importance of precision engineering in delivering safe, sustainable, and visually striking infrastructure. This project not only enriches the urban landscape but also invites the community to engage with Auckland’s natural beauty in a new and exciting way.
