Pothole repairs started across the city.
Journeys infrastructure manager Dave Hadfield says the majority of work is programmed during the evenings or night time to reduce disruptions to motorists.
“However, we've also kept the option of working through the day, to speed up the overall programme.”
“We thank the public for their patience as they've had to navigate around multiple potholes in the city for some time, but spring conditions have arrived and we're in a better position to fix these faults.”
Targetted roads include Gladstone, Wi Pere, Lytton, Rutene and Main Road (Makaraka).
Mr Hadfield asks the public to take care when approaching the worksites as we're trialling a reduction of signage and cones as part of a new risk-based approach to traffic management.
