A lowered entrance to the 550m extradosed bridge is expected to align well with the landscape and allow 235m to be trimmed off the overall crossing, thereby cutting down the amount of steel and concrete needed for construction.

Furthermore, to cut down the environmental impact, the crossing has been designed with two piers instead of three in the Wēiti River.

The alliance has worked on tapping renewable energy sources, harvesting rainwater and enhancing the recycling of construction materials.

The Penlink design figures a safeguard to a wide range of flora and fauna through initial investigations. Continuous environmental monitoring will be undertaken until the project completion in late 2026.
