Temporary road closures    

Centennial Drive, Matamata - Tainui Street to Rata Street

A friendly heads up, we will be removing a large tree - located in Centennial Drive - due to health and safety concerns. During this time the Tainui Street and Rata Street entrances into Centennial Drive will be closed to vehicles and pedestrians. Estimated times for road closures are 8am-4pm on Monday 21 July, and 8am-12pm on Tuesday 22 July. Thanks for keeping clear of this area while we safely remove the tree.

Bossons Road, Te Aroha

Due to heavy rain, water supply works that were going to take place on the berm now require a one way closure of Bossons Road in Te Aroha. While this closure is in place you will not be able to enter Bossons Road from Grattan Road, but it is still accessible from the Gordon Ave end. The one way closure may last until 8 August when the works are scheduled to finish, however if the ground dries out the works may be able to move back to the berm.

Footpath closure on Kenrick Street, Te Aroha

MS Civil will be replacing two sections of the footpath aswell as the kerb and channel from Kenwyn Rest Home to Honi Street. A walkway bridge will be available for public use as an alternative route during this period. The closure is scheduled from 14 July to 1 August 2025. 

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding during this time.

We will be working on the water supply along Allen Street, Morrinsville (between Strathmore Street and Allendale Place) for a 5 week period from Wednesday 16 July to Friday 22 August.

There will be disruption to normal traffic and our staff will be working in close proximity to the road. Please take care if you are exiting your driveway.

Rubbish collection will not be affected, please continue to put your bins out and our staff will ensure it is collected on the appropriate days.
