Service status

Work to repair the underslip and establish a new retaining wall continues.  The slip is located 50 metres from our completed Blue Bluff repairs.

The road remains closed to vehicles, with weekend access only.

The road is accessible for walkers but as this is a construction site with heavy machinery, caution is advised and we encourage people to consider avoiding the area while these repairs are underway.

There will be stop/go traffic control with a restricted speed limit along sections of Rangiuru Road as contractors install a new water main pipe. This work will improve water supply for fire fighting and enhance the network’s resilience.

Work will be undertaken between 7:00am – 6:00pm Monday to Saturday.

For your safety and those of the crews please follow the traffic control instructions.

When the pipe installation is finished, contractors will need to shut down the water supply in some areas to connect the new pipe into the existing network.

Affected people will be informed before any water shutdown.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation while we complete this important upgrade.

As part of our Ōtaki wastewater upgrade, we’re laying 2.7 kilometres of new wastewater pipe along Aotaki Street and Mill Road to the Old State Highway. 

Traffic management will be in place at various times while this important work is completed. Thanks for your patience. Read more about this major infrastructure upgrade for Ōtaki.  

Damaged sections of the footpath, kerb and channel are to be replaced with a new (1.8m wide) footpath.

• Pedestrians will be required to cross the road and use the footpath on the opposite side.
• Construction vehicles will be parked along the kerbside next to the footpath being renewed.
• Parking will be restricted on both sides of the road to allow for vehicles pass the worksite safely.
• Residents may experience restrictions on accessing their driveways while work is undertaken outside their property.
• A priority give way will be used where the is not enough space to allow vehicles to pass in both directions safely.

To keep everyone safe please ensure your vehicle(s) are parked well clear of the worksite.  You can park in your garage or on your property. We will be undertaking these works in stages, starting at the western end of Andrew Street and moving east from #52 east to #28 , and then from #57 to #31.  No parking around the works area will be available while works are in progress. 

If a Driveway crossing or kerb and channel is being renewed, access will be restricted. The Site Supervisor will liaise with you to ensure access and timing is suitable.
