Tauranga City works this week
18 May, 2009
Bellevue Road Rehabilitation: Due to recent bad
weather, work has been delayed and should be completed later this week.
Expect delays. Diversions for traffic coming from Waihi Road into
Brookfield are in place. The work being done is routine maintenance and
reconstruction of Bellevue Road between Waihi and Sutherland Roads.
Totara Street Rehabilitation:
Routine maintenance and reconstruction work on a section of Totara
Street around the intersection with Maui Street has started. Most of
the work will be done at night to minimise disruption to traffic.
Alternative routes may be advised during the day. Expect delays. Work
is expected to take about two weeks, although this is dependant on
weather.
Takitimu Drive Reconstruction: Routine
maintenance and reconstruction work on a section of Takitimu Drive
between the Elizabeth Street Roundabout and the Waihi Road overbridge
is expected to start in early June. The work is likely to take about a
month to complete, depending on weather. Lane changes will be in place
so that traffic can continue to use the road while the work is being
done. Delays are likely, particularly at peak times.
Fraser Street:
There has been a delay in the installation of new stormwater culverts
under Fraser Street due to greater than expected settlement of some of
the culverts. This problem is currently being fixed. Work is expected
to be completed, and Fraser Street fully reopened to traffic, by the
end of May.
Taniwha Place: Construction of a
right turn bay on State Highway 2 (on the Tauranga side of the Wairoa
Bridge) to make it safer for traffic turning into Taniwha Place has
started. Expect delays. Work is likely to take about four weeks.
Clarke Street:
Work on installing angle parking along the eastern side of Clarke
Street (fronting the hospital car park) will start soon. Minor delays
expected.
