A long-awaited project at Port of Tauranga has the green light.
The Stella Passage development will extend container berths and wharves, after getting fast-track approval, subject to conditions.
Payments will also be made to the local marae as part of 'cultural mitigation'.
Port CFO Simon Kebbell says it'll be two and a half years before it's finished.
"It's probably going to take six months to stand up for construction, so there will be consent conditions that we have to meet first, to get our contract in line - and then it's a two-year building time."
