The sealing season which commenced in October is well underway, with pre-seal repairs required to enable the 2025/2026 reseal programme progressing well. 

October kicked off sealing season with pre-seals completed on West Coast Road, Pouto Road, Baylys Coast Road and Colville Road, and reseals on Kai Iwi Lakes Road are underway.

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

Northland experienced an exceptionally dry March, which brought grading work across the district to a halt. 

A dry February has put the brakes on unsealed road maintenance, shifting our focus to wet roll grades.

Work across the 1126km unsealed network will pick back up in late March, having slowed down during the dry season. 

Summer holidays are fast approaching! During this time critical Council services continue, with some changes due to staff availability.

In October, Kaipara's roading team powered through 55% of necessary pre-seal works, in preparation for re-seals next year.

Teams are in full swing across both unsealed and sealed networks, preparing for the upcoming winter season.

Relatively dry weather in March enabled our roading team to push through our drainage maintenance and renewals.

Our team made the most of February’s mixed bag of weather.
