Te Kaha Surrounding Streets

Lane closures and detours from Monday

Investigative work for the Te Kaha Surrounding Streets water upgrades start on Monday 29 July. Council contractors Isaac Construction will be checking underground service locations and conditions ahead of construction beginning.

The investigations will take around two weeks. Contractors will be moving around the area carrying out the work.

To allow the team to work safely, the streets listed below will be reduced to one lane at times, and carparks will be unavailable either side of the road.

• Barbadoes Street between Gloucester Street and Ferry Road
• Madras Street between St. Asaph Street and Hereford Street
• Lichfield Street between Manchester Street and Madras Street
• Tuam Street between Madras Street and Barbadoes Street

Intersection and side street impacts 
Side streets along Barbadoes Street and Madras Street will be reduced to one lane at times so our contractors can safely carry out their investigation work through the intersections.

Each intersection is likely to be impacted for approximately 1-2 days as the team progress along each street. Detours will be in place to help people navigate through the area. 

Barbadoes Street side streets:

• Gloucester Street
• Worcester Street
• Hereford Street
• Cashel Street
• Lichfield Street.

Madras Street side streets:

• Lichfield Street
