Road closed after ‘massive’ fresh slip at Mount Maunganui

A major landslide overnight on Adams Ave at Mount Maunganui has forced the Tauranga City Council to close the road from Pilot Bay to the Maunganui Rd roundabout. The fresh slip poses significant risks to both the road structure and public safety. This incident highlights the ongoing vulnerability of the area to slips and landslides, especially given the region's history of similar events. It's a reminder of the need for careful monitoring and potentially more substantial engineering solutions to prevent future disruptions.
