Highlights

Hamilton remained stable for this edition of the RLB Crane Index®. The city continues to have two long-term cranes in its skies.

Work put in place in the Waikato region for the first half of 2024 fell by 12.3%. Residential work was down by 6.2% and non-residential was down by 22.5%.

Consents fell sharply for 2024 by 17.2%. This was driven by both the residential and non-residential sectors, which fell by 15.2% and 21.5% respectively.

A crane has been added to the Waikato Regional Theatre Project, bringing the total number of cranes to two.

One crane was removed from the Project Kaakano on Te Ipukura Street.
