Chains must be fitted when traveling over the Crown Range tonight. Motorists are advised to use the alternative route via Kawarau Gorge as some cars are stuck on the Queenstown side. Less vehicles will make it easier for crews to safely clear the road and grit it for motorists. Further updates will be made available on our Facebook page and through e-texts.

Shotover Bridge

Work to connect a new water and wastewater main at either end of the Shotover Bridge is now complete.


About the project

The new watermain supplies water to Frankton, and the wastewater main upgrades an existing sewerage pipe.

These upgrades were important to meet the needs of our growing district. It ensures safe and clean drinking water is flowing to our communities, and wastewater is managed safely and in a way that protects our precious environment.
