Roadworks in the region
We’ll be doing a large amount of roadworks in the area this season to improve the roads, increase safety and make people’s journeys more enjoyable.
Warmer spring and summer months are the best time for resurfacing as daylight hours are longer and the warm temperatures and dry air help the new seal stick to the road surface.
Roadworks currently underway or starting this month include:
- SH32 at Whakamaru township
- SH1 Kiko Road, north of Motuoapa township
- SH1 Te Rangiita, 300m north of Kiko Road
- SH1 Ramsey’s Hill, 2.5km north of SH1/Oruanui Road intersection
- SH5 Taharua Road, 500m south-east of SH5/Taharua Road intersection
- SH5 Fitzgerald Glade, at SH5/Tapapa Road intersection
We’re also planning to re-mark 1.2km of SH1 from Airport Road to Tawhaa Rd with a wide centreline, in conjunction with a planned reseal.
While we aim to do all of this work with as little disruption as possible, there will inevitably be delays to journeys. We encourage you to plan ahead using the journey planner to minimise delays.
Please drive carefully through work sites, keep to the temporary speed limits and be respectful of our crews who are working hard to maintain the roads. To find out more, go to our Waikato roadworks page
