Up until now, work on the new bridge has had little effect on road users, but this will change as construction ramps up.
Work on retaining walls and pavement from the new bridge to Dodson Street will soon begin, along with roading works to tie new pavement to the existing pavement.
Please keep in mind that traffic management and speed restrictions will be in place during this time and although two lanes of traffic will mostly be maintained, some activities will require traffic control.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food pantry, help someone with a broken down car or flat tire, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month also coincides with World Humanitarian Day on August 19th and Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is on September 1st.
Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
