The resurfacing will take place at three sites between Hillcrest Rd and Springfield Rd.
The NZ Transport Agency says detours will be in place but people should avoid the area or expect delays.
If the weather isn’t ideal on Saturday the work could be carried out Sunday.
Once the work is complete traffic management will remain in place to allow the sealing chip to bed in.

I d like to take the opportunity to introduce a brand new business here in Rotorua - Tea n Happiness. It is a RAW, vegan and fermented food business. I specialize in vegan cheese, nut cakes, sauerkraut, kimchee, nut & seed crackers, sprouted seed savoury cakes, kombucha and most things raw & vegan. I trade every Thursday at Rotorua Night Market and soon at Kuirau Park market, every Saturday morning.
I m available for catering, especially for special dietary needs, and can do a home visit to show you how to incorporate RAW & fermented foods in your daily routine.
If you see our bright orange van out and about, please come and say hi!
Warm regards,

My computer was about to crash and she needed details so that she could remove a virus from her end. I was not willing to give her any details without doing my own research first and she was really insistent and spoke the techno language well. She suggested she ring me back first thing in the morning as this was an urgent issue. I have contacted Microsoft and they don't offer this sort of phone call. My computer is fine.
Please DO NOT GIVE INFORMATION OUT over the phone to anyone especially on an unsolicited call. Be careful people there are scumbags out there try to take advantage of us !

In fact, it's prompted us to question whether a school uniform swap/sell section would be of interest to our members. If you have school uniform wearers in your family, we want to know: do you think they're a good idea? How do you feel about the price of school uniforms? Would a swap or sell section for school uniforms on Neighbourly be useful to you? Share your thoughts below!

This is your chance to celebrate your hood by sharing stories, photos or video. We really want to see and hear about the people in your neighbourhood. Portraits or videos of our neighbourhood champions, or the people that to you personify your community or ‘hood’. This year we’re doing it a little differently. To help focus (excuse the photography pun) we’ve chosen three themes.
1 – I Heart the History of My Hood
Everywhere we live has history, and stories. Do you know your hood’s history? Or maybe you know someone who has lived in the community for what seems like a million years, and know the place like that back of their hand. Was your hood the birth place of the women’s vote, or maybe site of the biggest lamington ever made way back in 53′ ….(Yes I know, random, but honestly we’re interesting in anything and everything)… By the way – this is also an awesome way to get our older ‘story tellers’ involved.
2 – I Heart Diversity in my Hood
New Zealand really has become a melting pot and that brings with it the rainbow of diversity of all kinds. Maybe you have the ‘united nations’ living on one street, maybe your neighbourhood pot luck dinners are better and more interesting than an international food fair could every dream of! We want to see and hear about it.
3 – I Heart My Healthy Hood
With our clean green image, amazing fresh foods, picture perfect outdoor environment, we know there are neighbourhoods out there that personify ‘health’. Is your neighbourhood or neighbour one of them? It could be through a neighbourhood walking group, or a ‘from garden to plate thanks to the shared neighbourhood community garden’ kind of thing. It might be a neighbourhood that has committed to getting the kids off screens and outside, or maybe its a whole street of cross fit power vegans ….. probably not … but you never know. What ever it is, we want to see and hear about it.

Hi neighbours,
Easter trading on Easter sunday is one step closer after a 'lone wolf' failed to stop the march towards it at a meeting on Thursday.
How do you feel about this?
