Road Maintenance

Annual Resealing Programme
Our resealing programme takes care of defects in the existing road surface and reduces the rate of further deterioration, making sure our roads remain safe and able to cope with the amount of traffic using them.
Road resealing is carried out every summer as part of a planned road maintenance programme. Priority is given to roads with surface cracking, potholes and other issues which could pose a risk to road users.
Summer is a busy time
Summer is a busy construction season on the roads for both local councils and Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency, who maintain the state highways. Please take extra care around road workers and work sites and stick to the posted temporary speed limits to allow seals to settle well. Reducing speed also helps reduce the movement of loose chips while they embed into the new seal.
Our contractors plan to do most of the work in November and December, weather dependent. Along with Waka Kotahi, roadworks will cease from 12 noon on Friday 22 December to 8am Monday 8 January 2024, to minimise disruption to peak holiday traffic.

Repair failure – drought or workmanship?
When the repairs fail, we have to establish if this is due to the underlying environmental conditions or workmanship. If we establish that it is workmanship, this is reworked at the contractor’s expense.
