Heads up, we’re flying by!
Over the coming months, we're conducting aerial surveys of TLC-owned lines and equipment via helicopters and drones. This footage identifies maintenance needs, ensuring your lights stay on and maintaining safety for our customers and team. Aircraft will rapidly survey TLC-owned lines and infrastructure, solely capturing equipment—not private property or people.
Scheduled for January 24 to February 7, the inspection covers Te Kūiti, Ōtorohanga, Piopio, Whakamaru, Mangakino, Arohena, Taharoa, Mōkau, and Marokopa. Note that the schedule may change due to flying conditions. For details, visit or contact our team at 0800 367 546.

Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
