On 14 June 2024, the Taurus and Vortex teams joined forces at Belair Close to support the Christchurch City Council’s tree planting initiative. Together, we successfully planted approximately 200 trees, contributing to a greener and more sustainable future for our community.
We are proud to be part of this impactful initiative and look forward to more opportunities to protect and enhance our environment. This event underscores our commitment to environmental stewardship and our dedication to improving community infrastructure.

Taurus Engineering is actively refurbishing pieces of Bailey Bridges, a crucial undertaking for the rapid repair of bridges damaged in floods. New Zealand has two storage facilities for Bailey Bridges, and over time, these bridge pieces require refurbishment.
Shane Smith, General Manager of Taurus, said, “Taurus has been entrusted with this task through Downer. Leveraging our technical expertise and experienced workforce, we are extensively refurbishing these bridge components.”
The NZ Transport Agency skillfully uses Bailey Bridges for emergency bridge repairs, a method that not only enables timely repairs but also embodies sustainability by reducing waste and maintaining the environment. Taurus is honored to collaborate with Downer in contributing to Aotearoa’s resilience and sustainability.

As part of Taurus’ ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability and employee well-being, we’re excited to launch our Biketober initiative. Throughout the month of October, we’re challenging our team to collectively cycle a remarkable 2,000 km. Not only is this an excellent opportunity to make a substantial impact on reducing our carbon footprint, but it’s also a fantastic way to promote health and well-being among staff. All you need to participate is a bike, a helmet, and a way to track your distance—be it Strava or a simple note of your daily travels.
Saving the planet while taking care of ourselves has never been more fun. Cycling offers an alternative to carbon-intensive commuting, while also giving you the chance to become fitter and explore your surroundings in a way you’ve never experienced before. Join us this October; each kilometre you cycle brings us closer to our sustainability goals and adds a boost to collective well-being. Take part, make a difference, and let’s ride towards a greener and healthier future together.
