Napier Road/Crosses Road Roundabout Construction - Works begin Monday April 11, 2022

Communications from Hastings District Council

Work will begin on the construction of the roundabout at the intersection of Napier Road and Crosses Road on Monday, April 11, 2022. The roundabout - which will reduce congestion and improve travel time and safety - will take approximately five months to complete.

Key Points
- During the construction works, there will be some disruption but the contractor will work closely with businesses and residents to minimise this.
- Road users will experience some delays during the works including lane closures and detours at times but these will be kept to a minimum.
- The only occasion there might be a complete road closure required will be when asphalt sealing and water and pipe works have to be undertaken, however, this will be undertaken during non-peak times.
- Some night work may be undertaken to enable the contractor to complete their works within the specified timeframes.
- Coffee at Crosses Café on the corner of Napier Road and Crosses Road will retain all of its parking spaces, however, the works will involve building a retaining wall separating the café parking from the pavement.
