Construction work will begin Tuesday 24 June around Centennial Park area to install concrete islands and road line marking. The roads to be marked are: Te Kūiti Road, Park Street, William Street and Ngarongo Road. We ask kindly that this area be kept clear of vehicles and residents do not park on the road for the next couple of days. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
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.
The large elm tree on Lawrence Street, in Te Kūiti will soon be felled.
A recent report has confirmed the tree has Dutch elm disease and must be removed. The removal aligns with Waikato Regional Council's directive following the Dutch elm disease outbreak in Waikato a few years ago.
The work is scheduled to take place on 24-25 February.
