In September, we kicked off pre-seals in preparation for the upcoming re-seal programme.

It is with profound sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Otamatea Ward Councillor Ron Manderson.

With winter drawing to a close, the roading team have been planning the unsealed road strengthening programme – set to start at the end of September.

The roading team have completed 20 slips over the last nine months. Pahi Road (pictured) is well underway.

We have some major works happening on roads around the district this month.

It’s been a busy month for our unsealed network – with over 9,600m3 of metal processed across our unsealed roads and 123km of road graded.

Complaints about wandering dogs fell by 65% and dog attacks are also down 43% over the same period.

Two major improvement projects wrapped up this month will futureproof the Maungatūroto water supply for years to come.

Did you know that a whopping 55% of journeys take place on just 16% of the KDC road network?

Significant strides have been made to repair hundreds of slips and restore the Kaipara roading network.

The dry season came to an abrupt end in April with the arrival of ex-tropical Cyclone Tam.

Commemorative ceremonies took place around Kaipara District on Friday in observance of ANZAC day.
