Sealing of Tauranga City Council’s Wairoa Cycleway project is scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday 9 August, between the hours of 9am and 4pm.
The sealing is being carried out on the cycleway, which is located adjacent to the state highway, between Wairoa Bridge and Bethlehem. While works take place there will be a temporary speed limit in place of 50 km/h.
As the work is off-road, it is not expected to result in significant disruption to the state highway network, however previous work in the area has resulted in additional travel time during peak hours.
Waka Kotahi advises road users to consider their travel while this work takes place, and to plan ahead with the Waka Kotahi Journey Planner(external link)
Work on the cycleway is expected to be complete in September.
