UPDATE, 15 July 2025
Light and heavy vehicles can now use the temporary road with a 30km/h speed limit in place. We’ll continue to monitor the site closely and carry out regular inspections throughout winter. Thanks again for your patience and for taking it slow through the site.
Following a recent rain event, heavy vehicle movements are now restricted on Kauarapaoa Road, from the junction of Papaiti Road, until further notice.
The road was damaged close to current work to repair Culvert 49 and a temporary section of road has been installed that is suitable for light vehicles only. All heavy traffic is asked to use detour routes.
- All heavy vehicles must use Rangitatau East Road to access Kauarapaoa Road.
- Property access will be maintained at all times for residents and emergency services.
- All light vehicle movements on Kauarapaoa Road (from Papaiti Road) are restricted to a 30 km/h speed limit.
Thanks for your patience while this detour is in place.
