Thames-Coromandel roading update

Public roading forum on Wednesday

The state of the roading network around the Coromandel will be the focus of a public forum being held this Wednesday, 6 September, at 5.30pm at the Thames War Memorial Civic Centre (Conference Room), Mary St, Thames.

The forum's been arranged by our Mayor Sandra Goudie and is an opportunity for the public to meet with agencies including the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) to discuss planned maintenance and priorities for future improvements to the Coromandel's State Highway network (SH25, SH25A, and SH26).

"Recently the Coromandel Business Association hosted a similar public meeting at Coromandel Town, inviting NZTA representatives to discuss the situation over slips along the Thames Coast Road (SH25) which has seen on-going road closures, affecting the upper Coromandel Peninsula for the past several months," says Mayor Sandra.

"This roading public forum will be along similar lines, but will encompass the entire district roading network, not just the Thames Coast Rd," says Mayor Sandra.
