Rimu Road changes this weekend
š¢ Heads up, KÄpiti! Tomorrow the road layout is changing on Rimu Road, Paraparaumu, with one lane opening to limited traffic travelling south from KÄpiti Road. There'll still be some detours in place so familiarise yourself with the new layout and take care when youāre in the area.
The Amohia stormwater upgrade work along Rimu Road is expected to reach the KÄpiti Road intersection around September. Work will then progress east along KÄpiti Road towards Amohia Street, with approximately 805 metres of new larger stormwater pipe laid by March 2024. Each of these stages will have their own traffic management plan, which we'll continue to share with you before they occur.
We know this work is disruptive, and weāre constantly reviewing traffic flows and adjusting them where we can to minimise the impact. We appreciate your patience and cooperation. Upgrading this important infrastructure will help reduce flooding for approximately 350 properties in the area, while helping our district prepare to live with more rain.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to āexuberanceā? š„
In The Postās opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, weāre āallergic to exuberance.ā
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps itās worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
