We’re responsible for maintaining all public roads and footpaths within the district, except for State Highways. Our job is to ensure you have safe infrastructure and access to get you where you need to go, and enhance community connectedness.
Our maintenance work – that’s tar sealing, chip sealing, obstructions, road markings, sumps, sweeping and unsealed road grading – is a constant balancing act of competing priorities and budget.

Police said the man went into the ASB Bank at Coastlands mall at about 4:30pm on Friday, threatened staff and presented what appeared to be a firearm.
"No shots were fired and no one was injured during this incident, although staff were understandably shaken," police said in a statement.
The man took off with an undisclosed sum of money, fleeing the scene on foot.
The bank is located on the outer perimeter of the mall, next to a main entrance. Police want to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time and saw the man leaving.
