Slip on Te Waitere Road – please drive safe

Council is aware of a significant slip on Te Waitere Road. Currently the road is down to one lane with priority give way traffic control in place. Given there is poor weather forecast towards the end of the week, we encourage those needing to pass through this site to be vigilant and drive safely and to the conditions.

Collaboration builds on great work at Maara Kai Roopu

Great things happen when collaboration is at play.

Council recently teamed up with Michelle Wi of Maara Kai Roopu to improve the health and safety and amenity values at the community garden.

A wastewater pump station has been onsite for decades, and when the site became occupied by Maara Kai Roopu, it was apparent that the pump station needed to be fenced off to minimise the health and safety risk.

The subsequent work was a collaboration between Council’s Water Services and ISBU teams who worked constructively with Michelle to ensure everyone’s needs were met.
