Q. In January, part of Tanekaha Rd in Titirangi subsided because of a water leak. The leak was repaired by WaterCare but the half of the road that had subsided was blocked off and stop lights put at each end to control the one-way traffic lane.
The usual bus service has been temporarily stopped until the road is fixed. After much telephone to-ing and fro-ing we were told it was WaterCare's responsibility and an engineer from there told us it would start the repair in two weeks. As that was quite some time ago I am wondering if you would be able to find out when it is going to be done. Jeannie Fletcher, Titirangi.
The section of Tanekaha Rd affected by the failure of the water main in January was left very unstable, and has required a high level of repair and design work to ensure the repairs are suitable and will endure.
The work site has other high-priority utility services nearby and that meant consultation and joint planning on repairs and design.
Because of the size of the project and its estimated cost, it had to be tendered on the open market.
