Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency advises road sealing works will take place in multiple locations around the Rotorua, Whakatāne and Ōpōtiki districts over the next week.
The following sites will operate under Stop/Go traffic management with a 30km/h temporary speed limit in place between the hours of 7am to 6pm,
while work is taking place:
• State Highway 2 – Edgecumbe and Awakeri
•State Highway 30 – Rotomā
• State Highway 30 –Ātiamuri
•State Highway 35 – Omaio and Maraenui
• State Highway 36 - Ngongotahā
For a period of at least 24 hours after a site has been sealed, and before it is swept, it continues to operate under a reduced temporary speed limit while we allow vehicles to travel over the seal and help "bed in" the chip and to reduce the risk of chip damaging windscreens.
Following this, the site is swept, excess chip is removed, and the temporary speed limit remains in place until line marking has been reinstated (within 48 hours of the site being sealed, weather dependent).
