All Maintenance Updates by Fulton Hogan in the Papamoa Area

What’s happening in Papamoa?

Tauranga City Council has contracted Fulton Hogan Ltd to carry out repairs and maintenance in Papamoa.

This work is part of the Council’s annual programme, improving road safety and investing in our roading assets, including footpaths.

Our work is very weather dependant so dates may change due to the weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

Our roadworks include heavy machinery which unfortunately can create noise, vibration and types of environmental factors (including cement dust for example).
