We will be carrying out pavement rehabilitation (granular overlay) on Tram Road. The work will start on Monday 14 October 2024 and is planned to take 5-6 weeks to complete (weather permitting).


Tram Road will be closed between Earlys Road and Tallotts Road, between the hours of 7am and 6pm.

The road will reopen to west bound traffic only with a reduced speed limit in place overnight.

Traffic will be detoured via Woodfields Road and Tallotts Road. Dust suppressant will be applied to the unsealed section of Tallotts Road for the duration of the detour.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
