Details
The scope of work comprises the removal of the existing road surface, the strengthening of the underlying pavement structure through the placement of new aggregate layers, and the application of a new asphalt surface to enhance durability, improve safety, and deliver a smoother driving experience for residents.
We will also be replacing the watermain from 216 Memorial Avenue through to the Greers Road intersection and continuing to Wairakei Road. These works are scheduled to occur from 6 January 2026 until the end of July 2026.
We acknowledge that road works can be disruptive, particularly given the ongoing watermain renewal work in the surrounding area. To minimise inconvenience, we intend to complete as much of the work as possible during the quieter school holiday period.
Please be aware of the following traffic impacts and on-site hazards:
- The road will be fully closed for the duration of the project, with access permitted for residents only.
- Detours will be in place throughout the works.
- Vehicle access to properties will be maintained using steel plates where necessary; however, on-street parking will be limited.
- Active construction machinery will be operating on site.
- Noise from heavy equipment and machinery is expected.
- Vibration and dust may occur during construction activities.
- Frequent movement of large vehicles will take place within the work zone.
- Temporary uneven road surfaces may be present.
- Traffic flow will be restricted and managed under an approved traffic control plan.
Noise
There may be increased noise, dust and vibrations during work but it shouldn’t impact on your power, water, gas or phone services.
Safety
Safety is our biggest priority so please keep children and pets away from worksites.
Bins
Please put your bins out as usual before 6am on your collection day. Our crew will move and return them if needed.
