Kawerau has good roads and footpaths

Roads and Footpaths

There are 40kms of sealed road in Kawerau - and one kilometre of unsealed road. All roads are resealed every 15 years. Kerb and channel are swept regularly and Council spends $25,000 a year to replace approximately 500 metres of kerbing.

Kawerau has 80 kms of concrete footpaths and has an annual programme to replace damaged footpaths, particularly where tree roots have lifted the lips. If you have a concern about footpaths, please contact the Council.

There are more than 700 street lights in the town. While inspections are undertaken regularly, if you see one that isn't working, please contact the Council, street light faults are attended to on a weekly basis.

Kawerau District Council will install a vehicle crossing or entrance way to properties. Driveways are the responsibility of property owners. 

Council has a network of underground pipes which dispose of surface water from the roads.
