SH4 resilience

16 December 2020

In October 2019 a large slip came down close to Raetihi, cutting off parts of SH4. We were quickly able to install a temporary replacement, reconnecting the community within two months. Since then we’ve been working with mana whenua and the community to develop a permanent road for this site, while continuing to improve resilience along SH4.
