VERY IMPORTANT

🚧 HEADS UP, HAURAKI! SH2 KARANGAHAKE GORGE CLOSURES 🚧

A reminder that SH2 through the Karangahake Gorge, between Paeroa and Waihī, will be CLOSED during the day this week for essential rock-scaling work.

📅 Monday 12 – Friday 16 October
⏰ 9am – 4pm daily
⛔ No through access during closure times

Crews will be removing loose and unstable rocks from the cliffs above the road to improve safety.

🚗 Plan ahead! Travel outside closure hours or use alternative routes via SH29 over the Kaimai Range or SH25.

🌧️ Work is weather-dependent, so check the NZTA Journey Planner before travelling:

great fun for all ages

Did you know we have a LEGO Club every Saturday morning at all three of our library branches?

Come along and show us your building skills. We were pretty impressed by Jackson's tall tower that he built! Come along tomorrow from 9:30am and try to match his tower 🗼

Heres a chance for people to share their views

Waikato Waters want to hear from you! Here is why it matters.

You might be wondering, what's Waikato Waters got to do with me right now? Fair question!

While Hauraki District Council currently manages your water and wastewater services, from 1 July 2027 Waikato Waters will take over as your provider. That means the decisions they make now will affect you down the track.

Right now, Waikato Waters is consulting on their Significance and Engagement Policy. This is the framework that sets out how they'll seek community input before making decisions that could have a real impact on your water services. Think of it as their promise to the community on when and how they'll listen.

Getting this right matters. A good policy means your voice will be heard when it counts, whether that's changes to services, pricing structures, or infrastructure decisions.

We encourage you to take a look at the proposed policy and share your thoughts before 5pm, Friday 30 October.

📋 Read the policy and submit feedback 👇https://www.waikatowaters.co.nz/en/about-us/have-your-say
