REPAIR, WAITOMO

In Winter 2024, Nicholls and Uttinger Civil completed repairs on a Waitomo Road that had been completely washed out by the previous year's severe storm events.

The four-month project involved excavating the slip material and constructing a large rock buttress fill to rebuild the road.
