Installing a section of water main onto Te Mata Rd will start overnight on Wednesday, 7pm to 10pm.
During that time there will be short periods (about 30 minutes) when there will be no access from Te Mata Rd onto northern side roads between Carl Ave and Guthrie Rd. After 10pm there will be no right turns available on the stretch of road where the pipe is laying.
Drivers will need to turn left and go around a roundabout in order to travel right.
On Thursday, as work progresses on drawing the pipe into the pre-drilled hole below the surface, entry to the side roads and driveways will clear.
We apologise for the inconvenience, however it is the only way in which to install this critical pipe work. Contractors and Council are working as hard as possible to keep disruption to traffic to a minimum. Please share this message with your friends and neighbours who are likely to be in the area at the above times.

Cabinet Maker?

Rae from Taradale

Some years ago, maybe as many as 15, I went to an address in Avenue Rd. There was a house with a workshop behind. A man made me a lovely rimu side table but he later. I think there was another man as well but I've forgotten who. Does anyone know whether he/they are still in business in Hawkes … View moreSome years ago, maybe as many as 15, I went to an address in Avenue Rd. There was a house with a workshop behind. A man made me a lovely rimu side table but he later. I think there was another man as well but I've forgotten who. Does anyone know whether he/they are still in business in Hawkes Bay? Beautiful craftsmanship. Would be interested to know if still around. Thank you.

Home handy-person?

Naomi from Taradale

Hello does anyone know someone who has the skills and time to replace a swimming pool deck? Ours has lots of rotten bits of wood but we're thinking it might be better to replace the whole lot. Before Christmas would be ideal.

One of the world’s greatest musical comedies is going full steam ahead at Theatre Hawke's Bay, with ANYTHING GOES hitting the stage.

ANYTHING GOES debuted in 1934, with music and lyrics by Cole Porter. The show was a box-office smash and became one of the longest-running musicals of the 1930s with numerous revivals over the years.

ANYTHING GOES is a wonderfully amusing story wrapped around one of Cole Porter's most magical scores, including songs like "It's De-Lovely", "I Get A Kick Out Of You", "All Through The Night", "You're the Top", "Blow Gabriel Blow", and the great title song "Anything Goes".

Set aboard the S.S. American, a luxury cruise liner bound from New York to London, the singing-dancing ocean liner overflows with wealth, sailors, a stowaway, gangsters, an evangelist, Wall Street brokers, and the most irresistible of showgirls Reno Sweeney.

Glen Pickering directs this Theatre Hawke's Bay production which boasts a 28 strong, all singing, dancing cast, with choreography created by Corinne Bowey, and music direction lead by Amanda Cooper.

“Anything Goes is an incredible musical that still remains fresh, fun and full of charm today. This production is witty, fast-paced, full of surprises. It has big characters, great songs and spectacular dance numbers. It's going to be an unforgettable night at the theatre" Pickering says.

With strong advance ticket sales, audiences are urged to come aboard ANYTHING GOES and book their tickets before they miss the boat.
