Mangaotaki Road upgrade complete

3 Sep 2024, 9:32 AM

We have completed the road repairs to Managaotaki Road in Piopio.

A section of the road had to be rebuilt after suffering an underslip as a result of the heavy rainfall events in previous years.

MS Civil was awarded the contract, with works also including drainage improvements.

General Manager Infrastructure Services, Shyamal Ram says with roads being a critical infrastructure in all communities, it is always pleasing to see damaged roads restored to a new condition.

“We thank the community for their patience with the temporary measures that have been in place at this site."
