Last stages of work underway at Princess StreetOur contractor is putting the finishing touches on the Princess Street roundabout – which is on track to be completed by the end of the month. Since our last update in May, workers have been completing asphalting work, landscaping, footpaths, barriers, fences, and have also installed and connected new light poles. The underpass is also nearing completion and is set to open to the public in July once the cultural expression on the walls of the underpass and those leading up to it is complete. Manukorihi, Ngāti Rahiri, Otaraua, Pukerangiora and Puketapu hapū (ngā hapū) have worked with Tihei Design and Workshop Studio to develop the cultural expression. This work is the first part of a wider cultural narrative being developed for the road between Waitara and Bell Block. |
