Northern Coromandel road works will cause short delays
Friday, 8 February 2019, 4:29 pm
Press Release: Thames Coromandel District Council
Delays of up to about 15 minutes can be expected between
Monday 11 February and 11 March on Port Jackson Road and
Colville Road while work to repair damage from slips takes
place at two sites.
A site just south of Otautu on Port
Jackson Rd will be worked on from 11 February until 4
March.
Work will take place just north of Oamaru Bay on
Coville Rd from 4 - 11 March.
At each location the road
will be down to one lane and will be under stop-go
management. Delays of up to 15 minutes can be
expected.
These traffic delays are to allow construction
of retaining walls to improve road stability and to
reinstate the road to its full width, which will also
improve safety.
We'd like to thank motorists in advance
for their patience while the work takes place.
Please
contact either Sam Edlin or Matt Busch from our roading team
on 07 868 0200 if you have any questions about this
work.

Already in January three leading US digital outlets—BuzzFeed, the Huffington Post, and Vice announced layoffs that have left many accomplished journalists unemployed. Consolidation of journalism looks set to continue unabated as larger (sharky) media conglomerates swallow up smaller players globally. We also appear to be witnessing the death throes of the concept of ‘objective’ truth in journalism. However, perhaps that is not at all as bad as it sounds, and we are just finally waking up to the reality that it never really existed in the first place... More>>
