Road closures: There will be several road closures in Whangamatā. We apologise for any inconvenience and ask for your patience on our roads as traffic delays are likely around the district with large crowds expected. For road closure and detour information, see www.tcdc.govt.nz/roads

Dogs: We know many pooches also come and enjoy the Hop. A reminder to owners keep your dog on a leash in public places. There’s areas you can exercise your dog off-lead, see tcdc.govt.nz/dogrules. 

Washing your pride and joy: We’re anticipating a huge number of visitors to Whangamatā, which means a large increase in water use in the area. 

To help us manage our networks and make sure there is enough water for everyone, we need all residents and visitors to ensure they are conserving water where possible:
