Safety improvement work and upgrades are being carried out on Maunganui Road and Totara Street.

Work to upgrade footpaths, construct a roundabout, and continue safety improvements at Mount Maunganui, include Golf Road, Tui Street, Hinau Street, Sutherland Avenue and Totara Street

Golf Road and Tui Street

• Safety improvement work to upgrade the existing footpath continues outside Mount Maunganui College between Golf Road and Tui Street. There will be a road closure in place until early May on Tui Street at the Maunganui Road intersection to allow construction on the footpath to continue. Work is due to be completed in early May.
• Construction of the roundabout at Tui Street begins Tuesday, 19 April. This requires closure of the southbound lane (towards Bayfair) on Maunganui Road at Dee Street until Friday, 20 May.

Hinau Street and Sutherland Avenue

• Work continues in this area. This work is a continuation of the safety improvements happening along Maunganui Road. Works include improved cycling facilities and connections to existing cycleways, new roundabouts at Hinau Street, Matai Street and Sutherland Avenue, and improved pedestrian crossing points.

Sutherland Avenue

• Due to unforeseen circumstances, to make these improvements a section of Sutherland Avenue between Maunganui Road and Pitau Road will be closed until late May.
