Spring kicks off pothole repair programme

Pothole repairs are taking place at multiple sites across the city. 

Council journeys infrastructure manager Dave Hadfield said most work was programmed during evenings to reduce disruption. 

“However, we have also kept the option of working through the day to speed up the overall programme. 

“We thank the public for their patience as they have had to navigate around multiple potholes in the city for some time, but spring conditions have arrived and we are in a better position to fix these faults. 

Targeted roads and streets include Gladstone, Wi Pere, Lytton, Rutene and Main Rd (Makaraka). 

Hadfield asks the public to take care when approaching the worksites as they are trialling a reduction of signage and cones as part of a new risk-based approach to traffic management.
