QLDC confirms pedestrian walkway by Lakeside Road now open
QLDC confirms pedestrian walkway by Lakeside Road now open
Geotechnical engineers from QLDC contractors Opus International have completed an independent assessment of the Marina Terrace landslide on Lakeside Road, Wanaka. They have advised that the site is now sufficiently stable for the pedestrian lake-side walkway beneath the slip on Lakeside Road to be opened.
At this time Lakeside Road remains closed to vehicular access with the alternative route being via Lismore Street until further notice. The Council is working with the developer to establish a safe means of opening the road and is emphasising the need to get it open as quickly as possible.
QLDC would like to acknowledge the patience and measured response from the community and local residents during this event. The developers and their contractors continue to communicate and cooperate with QLDC representatives, who are working closely with them to ensure that Lakeside Road can be opened as soon as it is safe and practicable to do so.
