Less log trucks on Kerikeri roads at peak times
Forestry companies have agreed to keep their trucks off Kerikeri roads during school start and finish times, when logging starts near the town later this month.
Northland Forest Managers is about to start trucking logs from private woodlots via Riddell Rd and Shepherd Rd, which are no-exit residential streets, then Cobham Rd, Hobson Ave and Kerikeri Rd to State Highway 10. The company expects a maximum of five truck movements a day.
Far North Mayor John Carter said time restrictions brokered by the council would prevent log trucks travelling through Kerikeri before 9am or after 2.30pm to reduce disruption for schoolchildren and parents on school runs. The company would also restrict its vehicles to 30km/h on residential streets, he said.
