Road users should expect some delays tomorrow, Wednesday 13 November, when travelling through the State Highway 2 (SH2) and Ōmokoroa intersection, while overhead powerlines are moved to make way for the new roundabout.
Contractors will be pulling large cables across the state highway, which requires short periods of stop/stop traffic management outside of peak hours (9am-3pm).
The Western Bay of Plenty District Council has been installing critical services such as power and fibre along SH2 this week, with the installation of 13 power poles for new lines.
Most of this work has been done offline, with very minimal traffic impact, but Wednesday’s work will cause short delays.
