ON THE GROUND: Operationally, the Landscapes and Water Rides are progressing. Napier CC is due to start construction along Westshore in early June.
HBRC has awarded contracts to build the lime-sand link from Onehunga Road to the Taipo Stream at Prebensen Drive, also starting in June.
Tukituki Road widening and cycle-laning is underway with Hastings DC, but was delayed due to flood cleanup.
