NOTICE - Road closure from Monday, 19 October 2020 

The downstream culvert at Cobham Drive will be worked on first which means that River Road will be closed from 262 and 264 River Road from Monday, 19 October.

Bus students who live around the Cobham Drive and Ward Street area in Kawerau will either need to make their way to the River Road Dairy or Kawerau Life Konnect (the former Kawerau Intermediate School) during the first of the two closures for pickup. The school bus pickup times remain unchanged.

The project will replace the existing culverts with much larger structures to reduce the likelihood of flooding of upstream properties after heavy rainfall.

Work will start on the upstream culvert by the Water Treatment Plant on 11 January.

Council apologises for the inconvenience to residents.
