Central Auckland flood recovery progress Central Auckland flood recovery progress
Extreme weather events in Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland caused damage to roads in 2023.
Over the last 18 months, we’ve made significant progress on repairing storm-damaged roads in the Central, Aotea and Gulf Islands area of Auckland.
Reported sites and slip repairs in Central, Aotea and Gulf Islands as of 31 December 2024:
- Total number of sites: 39 (14 major, 25 minor)
- Currently under construction: 1
- Completed sites: 23 (59%).
We have completed:
- 8 out of 14 major sites
- 15 out of 25 minor sites.
The only major slip under construction is Bassett Road, Remuera.
The reported number of sites requiring minor or major repairs will change slightly over time as the design and investigation of each slip site develops.
We ask for your patience as we repair sites all over Auckland.
