2. Corridor Access Requests (CAR)
This option will appear if your job involves the road corridor.
CAR Requests (Job Purpose: Excavation) - If you have an existing CAR application or approval from council/NZTA, which was generated by a previous beforeUdig job (i.e. is not a Submitica or other reference), enter it here to prevent a duplicate being created. Otherwise leave this blank and click Next.
CAR Requests (Job Purpose: Design) - Check the box if you require a provisional CAR to be generated for the Design enquiry (e.g. to assist with future planning for corridor management once excavation begins).
3. Asset locate details

Asset locate required - select YES if you require on-site locates/line detection from utilities that offer this service, then select your preferred locate date and click the box to accept the Terms & Conditions. Select NO to request copies of the plans only.

Tips:
- If your job is urgent (e.g. a burst water main, blocked sewer, animal burial, asbestos work, earthquake repairs), please ring our call centre on 0800 248 344 to lodge your enquiry instead - we can flag it as an emergency.
Asset Standovers
For Excavation jobs, you have the option to request onsite locates and/or standovers using the Asset Locate Details field (this will become available after selecting your Job Purpose as "Excavation").
For standovers, fill out the Asset Locate Details field as above, but ensure when you get to the Notes/Description of Works section of the page that you add a note that it is for a standover rather than a locate, e.g. "Electricity Standover required".
Note: For Chorus, if both a locate and standover are required for the same job, you will need to lodge two requests. For the standover request, add a note "Chorus Standover required ONLY" so any other utilities notified don't double-up when they organise their locates.
