Drone flying over Kent Street

DRONE FLYING - Kent Street, Te Kūiti
Waitomo District Council’s roading staff will be undertaking a drone survey of Kent Street where the road has slumped. The survey will help us to better understand the issue, and will also help the geotechnical team to determine remedial options.
The survey will be completed (weather permitting) this week either on Wednesday 7 September, or Thursday 8 September.
This should not cause any inconvenience to residents, apart from a drone flying above your house or in the vicinity.
Thank you for your understanding.
