Road works

Alexandra Road, Manawaru - 6 January 2025 

Our contractor J Swap will be undertaking a sealed road pavement rehabilitation on Alexandra Road, Manawaru. During this time, parts of Alexandra Road will be closed in stages from Monday 6 January - Friday 14 February 2025. Our contractor will use diggers, trucks, rollers, and other machinery for this project.

Detours

Please use an alternate route. Full traffic management and diversions will be in place for the duration of the closure, but access will be provided for residents, pedestrians and emergency services.

Rubbish and recycling collections

To ensure your rubbish collection is not affected by the road closure, J Swap Traffic Management will place numbered stickers on your bins, if you wheel them to the front of your property, we will coordinate with rubbish trucks to ensure that collections occur from designated closure points.
