As at 8am on 4 May, our roading crews are still working to clear slips and debris. Our road status remains unchanged. SH3 between Mōkau and Piopio is open under convoy arrangement during the weekend and nights.
Council's solid waste contractor is unable to provide a kerbside collection service to Mōkau and Awakino residents until after 22 May 2026 due to the construction works happening on SH3 Awakino Gorge. We are currently working on a solution and will provide an update when an alternative is confirmed. We apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
