Press Release: NZTA
Permanent repairs to SH1 Pohuehue Viaduct to get underway
next week
The NZ Transport Agency will start work on
permanent repairs to the road surface on State Highway 1 at
Pohuehue Viaduct next week.
It’s the second stage
of work to resurface the passing lanes across the
viaduct.
The first stage involved improving
drainage, along with some temporary surface repairs.
The full width of the road will now be resurfaced during
the next three weeks. Most of the work will take place at
night.
A 70km/h speed restriction is in place to
protect the safety of workers as well as the new road
surface which requires time to bed down.
The
Transport Agency would like to thank drivers for their
continued understanding and patience during this work.

In that respect, Uffindell’s defenders on the streets of Tauranga risk sounding a bit like the psychiatrist Kargol played by Graham Chapman on Monty Python. Some of the media commentary has also noted how the Uffindell saga has taken the shine off National’s good poll results and distracted us all from the unveiling of an important welfare policy at the recent National Patty conference. OK… So let's put the spotlight back on that welfare policy...
