Te Mahia progresses as we wait for the concrete to cure on Tara Bay Road.
The team have alread completed some retreats, watertables and were flat out getting a culvert in position after battling with solid rock during the dig-out. Time is of the essence to get the road transversal before the openings at 12pm and 5pm.
We put the grader to work before we started to iron out the pot holes and make travel through the 400 meter section a bit safer for all. (The gravel section had deteriorated somewhat in recent times). Once completed it will be chip sealed.

The transformation of Tara Bay Road and its stormwater improvements is almost complete. The concerted section is now finished, however, vehicle restrictions remain in place, with no vehicles over 3 tonne allowed on Tara Bay Road until Monday 28th September please while the concrete cures. Lighter vehicles are permitted.
We will return to Tara Bay Road next month when weight restrictions have lifted, for shoulder repairs and pavement preparation of the remaining top section of the road.
Thank you to all the Tara Bay property owners for their patience during the upgrade... a much more resilient road is hopefully worth the wait.

Prices connection to the Kenepuru and Outer Sounds has a long and interesting history. We have a deep connection to the Whenua and are active members of the local community.
3 Generations became 4 when Hannah joined the team earlier this year to manage our accounts and administration.
For a trip down memory lane please read our history below (as published in 2023).

Tara Bay Road Storm Water Upgrade is close to completion, final stages are underway including the concrete section of the carriageway.
To assist with longevity of the structure it is necessary for traffic to stay clear for at least 7 days from final pour. We understand that this is a "big ask" but the property owners of Tara Bay have been awesome and we appreciate their commitment to the project too.
Road closures remain in place for the next couple of weeks.... a full set of photos will be added when complete. Watch this space..... 😉

TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT:
Shout out to Kenepuru locals.... we are looking for a another person to join our traffic management team - you could be 'the cherry on top!'
Training provided, hours flexable/negoitable.
Perhaps you only need a week or two or a few days here and there, or more or less??
As locals ourselves we understand the difficulty navigating road closures and other jobs around your home/neighbourhood, combined with a whole day required just to get some groceries and suddenly time slips away on you! We can be flexible, best to text/call or email if you want to know more or have a chat!
Cheers

Class 2 Load Pilot services - We’ve Got You Covered! Moving big loads safely requires local expertise. The current Kenepuru Road restrictions require permits for over size/weight loads/truck & trailers, or large equipment and often also requires a pilot.
As locals and experienced class 2 load pilots, we are aware of the unique challenges our roads present and Health & Safety is our priority.
We are in constant radio contact with the drivers and other heavy machine road users, we do our best to keep the community informed posting our movements on the local community noticeboard, and advise road users the safest place to stop and wait for us to pass.
Its not the easiest job navigation through the construction sites, underslips, traffic lights, multitudes of road cones, other road users and very winding roads and tight corners (especially the Broughton Bay narrows that seems to give all road users the hebes!).
Thank you to our community for being so understanding. Our job is to keep everyone safe even in these trying conditions.
We'll see you on the roads soon! 😀

We recently added this Kubota tractor grader to our fleet. It offers a highly efficient, precise, and cost-effective solution for maintaining small driveways and gravel areas. Unlike massive commercial road graders, the compact Kubota tractor provides the perfect balance of power and maneuverability it can navigate tight turns, narrow residential driveways, and curved garden paths where large construction equipment cannot fit. We also changed the tyres to a more practical pattern turf tyre and can attach tow behind impliments, including our roller etc.

Tara Bay Storm Water.
We recently had a bit of a push to get some of the manholes, channel drains and culverts in place before the nasty weather hit. Still plenty to do, but at least the system is working and can handle the wet weather we are experiencing at the moment.
