Road resurfacing and testing being carried out next week
Please be aware of the following road resurfacing and pavement testing being carried out in Taupō next week. This work will be weather permitting.
CONTROL GATES BRIDGE RESURFACING
From Tuesday 27 April to Friday 30 April, we will have contractors working on resurfacing the Wairakei Drive / Norman Smith St intersection, including the northbound lane of the Control Gates Bridge.
The work will be carried out at night from 7pm to 6am, with stop/go traffic management in place.
While the work is being carried out, the Norman Smith Street traffic lights will operate on a timer as opposed to the usual trigger system.
Drivers can expect delays and are asked to please use caution around the work site. Our contractor will be working to minimise inconvenience as much as possible.
KIDDLE DRIVE / ARROWSMITH AVENUE INTERSECTION TESTING
On Tuesday 27 April and Wednesday 28 April, we will be undertaking preliminary pavement testing and surveying here. This work is in preparation for construction of a roundabout at the intersection which should get underway later this year.
Stop/go traffic management will be in place so please drive safely.
Thank you for your patience while we undertake this work.
