EcoFest North & COVID 19
Kia Ora koutou! Most of our events are going ahead as planned at this stage, and are taking place outdoor, mainly in nature, in a small group setting. We would like to reassure you that we support all actions to protect community health and closely monitor the Ministry of Health guidelines about COVID-19. If an event is cancelled, we inform all who registered and update our website. If planning to attend an event, please follow current recommendations, including:
- not to attend an event if you are feeling unwell, have been in, or transited through countries with high infection rates, or have been in close contact with someone confirmed with COVID-19 in the past 14 days
- be conscious to reduce touching your face, shaking hands, close contact greetings
practice good hygiene – cough into your elbow, wash hands for 20 seconds before eating, and after using the bathroom or touching surfaces that are used by many.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
