Road closure - Iver Trask Place

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Kia ora Kāpiti. Iver Trask Place near the Paraparaumu Council building will be fully closed for up to four days from Monday 15 May while the road surface is repaired following stormwater works. This means access to Iver Trask Place from Rimu Road will be closed.

Full access to Iver Trask Place, Paraparaumu Library, Novella Café, and the Council service centre will be available via Ngahina Street and Brett Ambler Way.

Thank you for your patience while we upgrade our infrastructure to reduce flooding and prepare our district to live with more water due to climate change. To find out more about this project, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
