Removal of Macrocarpas in Waitara

One of the two macrocarpas scheduled for removal from Manukorihi Hill in Waitara will be taken down today (Friday).

This will not require the closure of the access road.

However the road will be closed to all vehicles on Friday 16 December, from 8am to 4pm, when the macrocarpa at the lookout is taken down.

The trees are being removed due to erosion around their base.
