Roadworks

Ngarua Road

Ngarua Road from numbers 302-406 will have limited access from 17 November to 23 December 2025 so that our contractors JC Civil can complete works including road widening, stabilising and pavement repairs. Access will be maintained for residents, school buses, milk collection, rubbish collection and emergency services. We recommend you avoid driving through the area during this time and instead use SH26/27 or Seddon/Waihekau Roads.

Morrinsville-Tahuna Road

Roadworks will take place on a section of Morrinsville-Tahuna Road from 28 October to 12 December 2025 (weather permitting). There will be resident and essential services access only during this time. Please check the map below to take a note of the detour and allow extra time for your journey.

For residents of Morrinsville-Tahuna Road and surrounds, to ensure your rubbish collection is not affected by the road closure, J Swap Traffic Management will place numbered stickers on your bins. If you wheel them to the front of your property, they will coordinate with rubbish trucks to ensure collections occur from designated closure points.

The contractor will ensure school buses, milk collections and other essential services will not be affected.
