Ohakune Mountain Road praised
The Ohakune Mountain Road may be sealed all the way to the skifield car park next summer with the help of a contribution from Turoa Skifields. Turoa Skifields manager Tony Wright said in a letter to the Waimarino County Council that the company
will pay 25%-of the costs of sealing the remaining 2Z2 kilometres of metalled road. The county will &pply to the National Roads Board for the other 75% of the money required to finish the road. The resealing would cost about $400,000. In his letter Mr Wright complimented the county on the job done on the sealing
and resealing that has been done recently. "I would like to record my company's appreciation for the standard of both new seal and reseals completed on the mountain road this summer. The standard is very high, giving us a road that we are justly proud of" he said. The Lands and Survey Department was also pleased with the road. Ranger Lisle Irwin said the road was the best it has ever been and that the sealing work is of a very high standard.
