1 PURPOSE The City Rail Link (CRL) project comprises the construction, operation and maintenance of a 3.4 km underground passenger railway, running between Britomart Station and the North Auckland Rail Line in the vicinity of Mt Eden station. The construction works relating to this Communication and Consultation Plan (CCP) constitute part of the enabling works for the CRL, which Auckland Transport 1 (AT) has engaged Connectus to undertake. The works (the Project) involve the construction of twin rail tunnels within the Albert Street road corridor from Customs Street West to Wyndham Street. The tunnels will be constructed using a staged cut and cover method and are expected to take 33 months to complete. Figure 1 outlines the extent of works for the Project. The CRL project construction zone is a busy, multi-use area affecting a range of transport, business, community and residential activities. Public liaison and stakeholder communications are critical to the success of the Project. The development of a CCP is required by both the CRL designation and the CRLCRL enabling works resource consents. The wide-ranging concerns and the needs of all stakeholders have been considered and addressed during the Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) design development stage of the Project, and will continue to be addressed during the construction stage. This will be achieved through close collaboration with Auckland Transport (AT) and stakeholder engagement and communications initiatives. This CCPCCP has been prepared by Connectus to address the communication and consultation related conditions established through the CRL Notice of Requirement (NoR) process and the CRL Britomart to Wyndham Street enabling works resource consents. The CCP addresses the construction elements of the conditions by continuing AT’s best practice communication and consultation undertaken to date, to ensure a quality approach throughout the project’s lifetime from pre to post construction. There are also references in the CCP to an Infrastructure Sustainability Council of Australia (ISCA) Infrastructure Sustainability (IS) Rating, which is a comprehensive rating and certification tool for evaluating sustainability across the design, construction and operation of the CRL project. The IS Rating related content is not required for the purposes of the designation and resource consent conditions, but is required to provide sufficient documentary evidence for the purposes of obtaining an IS Rating. The CCPCCP identifies the project communications channels, audiences and timeframes for the construction periods and how the affected community will be informed of construction progress, activity and milestones. The CCPCCP has been prepared in consultation with the Community Liaison Group established for the enabling works as representatives of proximity parties, as well as with named parties relevant to this stage of the project.

2 CONTEXT 2.1
PLAN OVERVIEW
The purpose of this CCP is to describe the processes and protocols relating to how Connectus will:
Manage and deliver communication and consultation with the community, stakeholders and affected parties and affected in proximity parties during the construction of the CRL Albert Street cut and cover works;
Provide assistance and cooperation to AT in relation to media and stakeholder relations activities, and
Comply with the requirements and responsibilities set out in the designation and resource consent conditions, and AT’s own Communication Consultation Plan for the CRL project.
This CCP will ensure:
2.2
The public and affected communities are well informed and feel safe. They will know about construction progress and future construction activities and any constraints that could affect them;
Disruptions are minimised;
There is ‘one face’ for the project;
Both AT and Connectus maintain a positive reputation and support amongst the stakeholder groups;
Information is provided early on key project milestones;
AA framework is provided to obtain feedback and input from directly affected and affected in proximity parties;
Ensure queries and complaints are responded to quickly and appropriately;
Stakeholders, including the media, pedestrians, motorists, adjacent residents and businesses, are positively engaged, and
The CRL delivery teams understand their responsibilities and can collaborate and quickly respond to stakeholder concerns.
CONSULTATION AND COMMUNICATION APPROACH
AT and Connectus will undertake consultation and communication on the basis that we wish to take our stakeholders with us on the project journey. We are committed to delivering the project as fast as possible with as little disruption as possible to businesses, commuters and the community and will work with them to achieve this. Consultation will continue to occur with key stakeholders, and those who are impacted as a result of their proximity to the designation. Engagement with other stakeholders and the public will be about communication; providing them with information on the project and responding to their inquiries and concerns. The results of consultation will influence the management of project effects to better address the issues. . 17
City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport
Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016
AT established a CRL communication and consultation strategy in 2012 with a range of objectives and principles. These include:
A proactive approach- AT will approach stakeholders with information rather than sit back and wait for people to come to it with inquiries; key stakeholders and affected parties have a right to express their views and concerns about a project that has the potential to affect them
Effective communication channels- AT will maintain constructive links with key stakeholders by communicating on a regular basis; continual networking and presence in the business and other relevant communities; and seeking opportunities for dialogue and information-sharing.
Openness about issues- Information should demonstrate that AT is being upfront and transparent about what is proposed and provide as much certainty as possible while acknowledging that project detail is not finalised.
Responsiveness- Responses will use best practice by being timely, full, helpful, frank and detailed; key stakeholders and affected parties have a right to expect that their views and concerns will be considered in project decisions. They should demonstrate that AT is listening, even if agreement cannot be reached.
The objectives have four areas of focus:
Inform stakeholders about the project o
Engage constructively with key stakeholders/target audiences, providing consistent information across the project.
o
Maintain and enhance existing relationships for ongoing constructive engagement.
Explain the process and timing o
Ensure key target audiences and stakeholders have an accurate understanding of the project and its implications.
o
Explain how the planning processes work and how people can input into them.
Educate people about the CRL o
Discuss how the project fits into strategic city planning and the regional development of transport infrastructure.
o
Minimise uncertainty and dispel misinformation.
Enhance AT’s reputation o
Ensure that AT is open and responsive to stakeholder feedback.
o
Manage communications risks that may impact the project and AT’s reputation.
Connectus have adopted these objectives and have developed this CCP accordingly.
2.3
CONSULTATION UNDERTAKEN
Extensive consultation has been undertaken in preparation for the construction of the CRL in order to understand the specific access requirements and other potential disruption issues for residents and individual businesses/services. Consultation has been undertaken by Alan Howard-Smith (Connectus Communication and Consultation Manager), along with other Project specialists (e.g. Noise and Vibration). The purpose of the consultation was to identify the type and scale of disruption, specific access and servicing requirements, and client and visitor behaviour and requirements.

3 PRINCIPLES AND OBJECTIVES 3.1
PROJECT KEY MESSAGES
The key messages reflect the project objectives and form the basis for the project’s overall strategy for informing and getting feedback from those impacted. While these will remain constant throughout the project duration and beyond, they will at times be supported by other messages that reflect construction activity and/or other influencing factors. The hierarchy of the key messages will be defined by the audience (e.g. local / regional / national) and its relationship to the project. Examples are:
The CRL is integral to meeting Auckland’s growth and subsequent transport demand.
Completing the CRL will provide faster, more frequent travel for all Auckland rail users
Disruption during construction will be managed to ensure Auckland keeps working
The Construction Environmental Management Plan CEMP reflects unwavering commitment to safety, environmental sensitivity and community well-being.
Connectus supports the key messages which form the basis for AT’s overall communications strategy. While these will remain constant during the Project and beyond, they will be supported by other messages that reflect construction activity and/or other influencing factors.

MANAGEMENT OF ISSUES AND RISK
Connectus will align with AT’s guiding principles for the management of issues and risk as follows:
Prevention – We will anticipate potential community impacts and manage risk at the source through effective process design, and through clear and open communication between the various participants and the community.
Planning – We will conduct detailed planning for known issues, such as noise, traffic and commuter disruptions, which have specific impacts on particular stakeholders or sectors of the community.
Proactive behaviours – Our approach to community relations is predicated on being proactive and engaging early and actively with people and groups who may be affected by our works. This will assist our team to prevent potential risks from becoming issues and also enable community feedback to inform planning and prevention strategies.
Active listening – We will listen to the community to understand specific issues and concerns and work with stakeholders and community members to develop practical and targeted mitigation measures that address those issues.
3.5

5 STRATEGY 5.1
STRATEGY OVERVIEW: CONVERSATION LOCALLY; BROADCAST TO WIDER AUDIENCE
The communication and consultation programme (pre, during and post construction), aims to engage and inform the primary audience of local residents/businesses, affected/interested stakeholders and Albert Street users (drivers/passengers/pedestrians) about the Project before major construction commences. This will prioritise face-to-face interaction and access to information to ensure affected parties are aware of the project scope and effects, and feel confident in the ability of AT and Connectus to deliver the project with the least possible impact. Once general information on the project has been disseminated, the immediate neighbours will be directly serviced at a detailed level by the appointed contractors. A secondary audience of the wider Auckland population will be serviced through a predominantly online and electronic communications strategy. The key messages for this audience will be the benefits of the project and advanced communication of changes to road function to enable informed choice and to ensure travel-related information is readily available.
5.2

The CRL is AT’s number one project. The overall AT branding will be supported with any constructor brand, which will be used to provide a local and dedicated community face for the appointed construction delivery team. Guidelines for all project collateral will be in line with AT standards to ensure consistency. While the CRL sits with a busy city environment, many of those interested in the project and in particular its effects on the use of city roads may live beyond the project area. The focus will be on electronic communication while recognising that not everyone has access to this medium. Postal or hand delivery methods will be used where the need is identified. Channels will include:
Website
The project/AT website will be at the heart of the communications approach, with the aim of promoting it as a one-stop-shop for vital and interesting information for both the affected community and a wider audience. It will provide a facility for people to sign up for email updates. Contact details for the CRL including freephone and email will be provided on the Auckland Council website as well as a link to the CRL project site.
Newsletters
Project newsletters will be produced at least quarterly during construction and generally, sent electronically to the project stakeholder database which will grow as the project proceeds. A sign up facility will be provided on the project website. Printed material is not proposed as part of AT’s commitment to sustainable business practice.
Open Days
Community open days/showcases or similar are planned annually for wider audiences to find out about the project and meet project staff. Where relevant, these will be coordinated with adjacent council/AT projects.
Social media
The project will also have a complementary online presence on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. Presence on social media will reflect AT guidelines.
Project signage
Located throughout the project area in high traffic areas, signage will be located ahead of the works to promote the project’s information channels including freephone and to advice of progress. All signage to be ‘on brand’ (AT/constructor). Signage may be backed up with people on the spot at key crossings to assist pedestrians. At the construction sites there will be an opportunity for signage to provide additional general information about the project and its benefits. Each site will also have available a copy of this

IDENTIFYING AND COMMUNICATING WITH KEY STAKEHOLDERS
Connectus recognises the range of diversity amongst the stakeholders and their level of interest and involvement. While large segments of the community or particular groups have similar interests and issues, there are also specific individuals and groups with unique or individual needs. This includes those from culturally diverse backgrounds. We commit to fully understanding our stakeholders and the community we are working within, their expectations and communication needs. 5.4.1
Liaising with stakeholder groups
Connectus team members will be responsible for maintaining clear lines of communication between key stakeholders, Connectus and AT. Connectus is required to:
liaise with key contacts within the stakeholder groups, and
ensure they are kept fully informed about the CRL work that is being carried out.
5.4.2
How we will communicate and consult
To ensure the level of communication with stakeholders and affected community groups is effective, we will use a number of different communication channels. These are described more fully in the ‘Communication Tools’ section of this plan. They include a wide range of engagement methods within the following channels:
Publications
Telephone and email
Online
Signage
Advertising material
Partnerships
Feedback forms and awareness surveys
5.4.3
Parties affected by the project
There are a large number of stakeholders associated with the CRL enabling works. Details of the different types of stakeholder and the contacts details for each are provided in Appendix A.

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016
Owners All property owners within the CRL designation have been identified using the Auckland Council rating database. Those adjacent to the construction sites will be identified similarly. Where contact details (other than postal) are unknown to the project, owners will be contacted via post and asked to provide their ongoing details, preferably email and also the contact details of any occupiers of premises they own. They will be provided with the contact details for the CRL including phone, email post and website where they will be able to sign up for information and updates Occupiers/Residents Where information regarding occupiers was not forthcoming, they have been identified by project staff walking the route and noting all occupiers and gathering ongoing contact details, such as email. AT has also sought information and assistance from the relevant business associations and the Auckland Chamber of Commerce and Industry to complement this. During the life of the Project this process will be repeated to capture changes in occupiers. Changes to owners will be captured through the rating database. AT will continue to work with the Chamber of Commerce and from its existing database, understand more about the relevant affected businesses. AT will utilise the business associations and Chamber as conduits for two way information gathering and dispersal to and from members and the project team. Where agreed, AT will use their existing communication channels. They will also provide the project team with a useful touchstone in the business community. Submitters The contact details of stakeholders listed specifically in the project conditions have been identified through their submission contact details or through direct contact. AT has an existing relationship with many of them as a result of the earlier consultation and planning processes. These contact details form the basis of the project’s email database to be used as the prime method of distributing information relating to construction, hours of work, material changes, effects on the road network, changes to street layouts, etc. Others AT has existing email/text/web systems in place to communicate with public transport and road users in Auckland and these will be utilised where the CRL construction impacts on bus and other transport services. Communication and consultation will generally be by email, phone and through the Community Liaison Group established for the enabling works. With organisations, companies and body
corporates communication will be by email, unless meetings or alternative methods are requested. Network Utilities The Albert Street cut and cover works require the relocation of a number of existing network utilities. The affected utilities are owned by the following Network Utility Operators (NUOs):
Chorus
Vodafone
Vector Gas, Vector Power, and Vector Communications

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016
The proposed cut and cover works and associated network utility relocation and protection works were discussed with the above NUOs through a series of meetings, workshops and communications between June 2015 and March 2016 (with discussions ongoing). AT, Connectus and the NUOs have held a series of collaborative workshops where drawings showing the proposed CRL works have been overlaid with utility assets. Based on the outcome of these discussions the detailed civil design for the cut and cover works, and utility works in particular, has been agreed with the NUOs. The NUOs are satisfied that they can continue to meet their operational requirements during the CRL construction works. The proposed utility works are described in detail in the Construction Environmental Management Plan (CEMP) for the Project (refer Sections 2.2.3, 4.3.1 and Appendix M of the CEMP). Engagement with the NUOs will be ongoing during construction, with the objective of ensuring appropriate protection of utility assets and the ability to meet operational requirements at all times (refer Section 6.2.3 of this CCP). Auckland Council Parks Department Connectus is required to engage Auckland Council Parks Department regarding works to be undertaken to any trees on public land located within the works area, including how trees not being removed, or in close proximity to the surface designation footprint where works are occurring, will be protected. Further detail regarding communication with Auckland Council Parks Department is provided in the Trees and Vegetation DWP.
Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga (HNZPT) For the purposes of applying for the necessary Archaeological Authority for the CRL enabling works, extensive consultation has been undertaken with the HNZPT Regional Archaeologist. Refer also to section 3.10 of the Historic Character Delivery Work Plan. Emergency Services Connectus has a requirement to inform emergency services of any relevant effects prior to the commencement of each construction stage. In particular this should include any changes to traffic movements around the construction site. Emergency services which have been engaged are:
New Zealand Police
New Zealand Fire Service
St John Ambulance
Mines Rescue Service
5.4.4
Identifying additional people affected by the project
Additional people affected by the project will be identified through complaints and enquiries recorded in the Customer Response Management system (CRM), email contacts to the site, one-on-one

discussions with the community, and from media impact. The primary database of all people affected will be the AT CRM. A sample of occupants of the major multi-storey buildings affected will be shown the constructability sequence and impacts. This will be done through one-on-one engagement in accordance with the Social and Business Disruption Management Plan. It is not intended that all occupants of all buildings will be communicated with directly.
5.5
COMMUNICATION CHANNELS
Day-to-day communications and stakeholder-liaison protocols will be delivered using a variety of channels, with differing frequencies. A milestone-oriented strategy will see specific events and communications tailored around the project’s construction programme. Detailed communications strategies will be developed around these milestones. An indicative programme is shown below: Figure 2 Indicative Communication Programme

6 PROTOCOLS, PROCESSES AND CONTACT DETAILS 6.1
COMMUNITY LIAISON GROUP (CLG)
The establishment of a Community Liaison Group (CLG) is one of the key consultation tools required by the designation and resource consent conditions for the CRL. A CLG has been established for the CRL enabling works. The works CLG is a key mechanism for reflecting community concern and interest, and communicating the programme to the community’s most affected parties. AT has been holding CLG meetings at least every two months prior to construction commencing for the CRL enabling works, and will continue to do so every month during construction of the Project (unless otherwise agreed by AT and the CLG). Records of the meetings are published on the project website. The meetings include representatives from AT and the construction contractor, and at the time of the CLG being established membership was open all parties affected by the Project 6.1.1
CLG Purpose
The purpose of the CLG is to:
Provide a means for delivering regular updates on project progress;
Monitor the effects of the project on the community;
Enable opportunities for concerns and issues to be reported to and responded by AT;
Provide feedback on the development of the CEMP and Delivery Works Plans (each of the DWPs documents comments received from the CLG and how these have been responded to);
Propose potential joint initiatives to AT for the Property Management Strategy regarding interim use of properties and vacant land acquired for the CRL;; and
Conduct an annual survey to inform any changes needed to the CCP to ensure customer satisfaction.
6.1.2
Requirements
As required by the designation and resource consent conditions, representatives of local residents and businesses as well as named parties were invited to join a CLG for the CRL Britomart to Wyndham Street enabling works. The CLG for the enabling works was established in February 2015 and has met regularly throughout the pre-construction process. The CLG’s role is to:
Ensure that community interests are identified and recognised through the construction process and through feedback on the development of the CEMP, DWPs and management plans for issues such as traffic, access, noise vibration, heritage, social impacts, urban design, landscape, station plans and specifications addressed in the ISCA document regarding community health and wellbeing. The draft CEMP, DWPs and management plans were provided to the CLG for review and presented at a series of CLG meetings during

Network Utility Operators
Ongoing communication and consultation will be undertaken with Network Utility Operators (NUOs) during construction as follows. 6.2.3.1
Material changes affecting Network Utilities
Where a material change is identified that affects network utilities, then the following process will be adopted: (i) AT will contact the relevant NUO to organise an on-site meeting in conjunction with Connectus. (ii) If the change is subsequently agreed on site, then the relevant construction and/or as-built drawings will be revised.
41
City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport
Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016
(iii) If the change cannot be agreed on-site, then a meeting will be held between AT, Connectus and the relevant NUO Project Manager to identify a mutually agreeable outcome. 6.2.3.2
Section 176(1)(b) RMA Approvals
(i) The relevant NUO will identify the scope of work required to be undertaken, including location and timing. (ii) The AT CRL Utilities Manager and Connectus will meet with the relevant NUO Project Manager to discuss the scope of work, programming, and physical interface with the CRL construction works. Based on this discussion, AT will determine whether or not the proposed utility works would ‘prevent or hinder’ construction of the CRL (and whether AT is able to give written consent to the utility works). Wherever possible, a mutually agreed ‘work plan’ will be developed that allows necessary utility works to proceed in a way that does not hinder construction of the CRL (particularly in the case of maintenance and urgent repair works). 6.2.3.3
Supplementary Authorisations
(i) Depending on the circumstances, the relevant NUO or AT will identify what authorisations are required. (ii) If the proposed utility works are not related to the CRL project, then the NUO will be responsible for obtaining any necessary authorisations (including resource consents where required). (iii) If the utility works are required to facilitate construction of the CRL project, then the AT CRL Utilities Manager and Connectus will meet with the relevant NUO Project Manager to identify an appropriate design and construction methodology for the works and confirm the authorisations required. AT will be responsible for obtaining any necessary resource consents. 6.2.3.4
Inspection and final approval of works by Network Utility Operators
(i) Upcoming inspection, testing, and commissioning works will be identified at weekly meetings between AT, Connectus and the NUOs. (ii) Connectus will arrange necessary site inspections directly with the relevant NUO Project Manager. (iii) If the inspection passes, then the NUO will sign off the work package. (iv) If the inspection fails, then the AT CRL Utilities Manager (or delegate) and Connectus will work together to identify the appropriate remedial action and a re-inspection will be organised with the NUO. 6.2.3.5
Ongoing Communication and Consultation
During the utilities phase of CRL construction works there will be regular on-site liaison between Connectus and the NUOs. This will generally be undertaken by way of ‘tool box’ meetings at the start of each day, complemented by weekly meetings between AT, Connectus and the NUOs. The purpose of the weekly meetings is to plan in greater detail for upcoming utility works in conjunction with other aspects of the CRL construction works – e.g. temporary traffic management. 6.2.3.6
Review of Management Plans
The CEMP and Delivery Work Plans for the CRL Albert Street cut and cover works will be reviewed at least annually, or as a result of a material change to the Project, or to address unforeseen adverse effects arising from construction or unresolved complaints. AT will inform the NUOs of any such reviews, and will actively engage with the NUOs where a material change to the Project has implications for network utilities or the review is required in order to address unforeseen effects or unresolved complaints relating to the utilities aspect of the Project.

Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016
Coordinating projects
A high degree of coordination is required with various other projects that will be undertaken in the downtown area at the same time as construction of the CRL enabling works. AT will lead the coordination process (with assistance from Connectus) for these projects to minimise adverse effects and maximise efficiencies. 6.2.4.1
Responsibilities
Connectus is responsible for the integration of communications between the various projects to ensure that a culture of ‘no surprises’ exists between Connectus and AT’s CRL team AT is responsible for liaising with Auckland Council and its other Council Controlled Organisations (CCOs), and private sector developers in relation to these other projects. This will ensure there is a common face to the public about the broader redevelopment of Auckland’s Central Business District. At a political level oversight is provided by the Council’s Auckland City Centre Advisory Board. This has a number of entities represented on it. Its mandate for oversight includes:
City Rail Link
Light Rail
The AT Metro Bus Network
Cycleways
Public Open Spaces
Ports of Auckland
Section 3.7 of the Transport, Access and Parking Delivery Work Plan identifies the public and private sector projects that will coincide with construction of the CRL enabling works. 6.2.5

As a result of this the following measures have been adopted: 1. An Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) (specialised signage with on demand flashing lights) and management plan developed to enable clearance of the service lanes to allow contra-flow use of the road network by fire tenders in an emergency.
43
City Rail Link – Enabling Works Contract 2 Project #: 2665 Client: Auckland Transport
Communication and Consultation Plan Doc. No. CRL-PAT-CST-CON-PLN-001282 Revision: 6, Date: 1 June 2016
2. The service lane has been widened and spaced for turning into side roads (Mills Lane and Swanson Street East), eased to allow for large fire tenders and the deployment of outrigger arms for aerial appliances. 3. The structural design of the general traffic and construction decks has been adjusted to allow for the point loads of the aerial appliance outriggers. Similarly, a reinforced concrete beam will be installed in the footpaths on both sides of Albert Street to allow for outrigger point loads as well. The major aspects of these requirements are not to interfere with the scene of an accident involving serious harm other than to prevent further harm; and provide assistance to the emergency services at their direction. Further details for emergency service procedures and movements have been established in coordination with emergency services (outlined in 4.19.2 of the TAP DWP). 6.2.6.1
Requirements
Connectus is required to:
Undertake a test of the emergency response plan, which will be held early during the appropriate stage and Fire and other emergency services advised of on-going changes to traffic layout and works progression through regular liaison.

Acknowledgement of a complaint is provided within 2 hours of receipt. However, should the complaint demand a more detailed response, this will be provided within 2 working days. Major complaints such as building damage will be addressed as soon as is practicable. Note: See the ‘Response timeframes’ in section 0 below.

7 EVALUATION 7.1
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Annual surveys will be carried out within the CLG and wider affected community by a suitably qualified person and the results used to inform any changes needed to this CCPCCP to ensure customer satisfaction. Feedback through the CLGCLG will also be useful in determining community awareness and perspectives. This will also meet ISCA requirements for the purposes of obtaining an Infrastructure Sustainability (IS) Rating for the Project. Where the communications and stakeholder team has fielded a complaint, a follow-up call will be actioned one month after the complaint has been closed out, and feedback recorded in the project communications database. Annual audits and/or community surveys will be undertaken to review communication with the community. These will meet requirements under ISCA.
7.2
PERFORMANCE MONITORING
The communications team will work within a six-nine month framework, which reflects the Project's overall goals and current issues. This CCPCCP will be reviewed six monthly and updated if required. Any updated CCPCCP will be provided to the key contacts representing AT and Connectus venture and made available at construction site offices. The communications team will meet fortnightly to monitor progress against this framework and respond to any new issues that arise. Twice-yearly planning days will be held to plan these six month strategies, which will be approved by the AT CRL Enabling Works Construction Manager before implementation.
7.3
EVALUATING COMMUNICATIONS PERFORMANCE
Communications performance will be evaluated across a number of key performance indicators, including by carrying out stakeholder surveys and reviewing feedback from the CLGCLG. 7.3.1
Requirements
Connectus is required to evaluate communications performance by:
Conducting stakeholder surveys at intervals to be agreed with AT. These will gauge the surrounding communities’ level of satisfaction;
Receiving feedback through the CLG.LG This will also be useful in determining levels of community satisfaction; and
Holding weekly work in progress meetings with the AT CRL Enabling Works Construction ManagerProject Manager. During these meetings stakeholder satisfaction and upcoming work will be reviewed to identify communication requirements. Any issues which arise which may be potentially contentious or affect AT’s interest should be communicated to the Project Manager immediately.
