It identifies potential long term alternative State Highway 2 corridors to improve route security and efficiency between Matata and the State Highway 2/Wainui Road intersection. The site area is shown in Drawing 134960-P101. This is a seeping study only, and identifies preliminarily routes which could potentially be investigated in future. I) The existing State Highway 2 route from Matata to the State Highway Two/Wainui Road intersection deviates significantly from a direct route, resulting in inefficiencies, and as a result use of local roads by state highway traffic. II) In addition, the existing state highway route has route security Issues arising from flooding and the stability of key bridges. Bridge insecurity resulting from scour, overturning, and seismic failure are considered to be significant risks for the Ontrack owned State Highway 2 crossing of the Whakatane River (Pekatahi Bridge). The only alternative crossing of the Whakatane River Is on State Highway 30 (Landing Road Bridge).

  • Whakatane Waimana Floodplain Management Strategy - Stage 1 Review of the Current Flood Hazard from the Whakatane and Waimana Rivers and Existing Responses
    Whakatane Waimana Floodplain Management Strategy - Stage 1 Review of the current flood hazard from the Whakatane and Waimana Rivers and existing responses Prepared by Robbin Britton, Project Engineer Environment Bay of Plenty Operations Publication 2008/09 June 2008 (updated from January 2007) 5 Quay Street P O Box 364 Whakatane NEW ZEALAND ISSN 1176 - 5550 Working with our communities for a better environment E mahi ngatahi e pai ake ai te taiao Environment Bay of Plenty i Foreword Concern for the security of the Whakatane and Waimana floodplains is the reason behind Environment Bay of Plenty’s preparation of a floodplain management strategy. This floodplain management strategy reviews what the flood hazards are in the floodplains, what flood protection is provided to people and property living on the floodplains and what, if any, additional protection needs to be provided. Floodplain management strategies are not the same as Civil Defence Emergency Management (CDEM) Plans. Under the Civil Defence Emergency Act 2002 each regional and local council must prepare plans detailing how they will manage catastrophic events such as volcanic eruptions, tsunami storms, earthquakes and fires. Construction of flood defences began in the catchment in 1965 and this was complete by the early 1980’s. Since that period components of the flood defence system have been reviewed but not all together. This floodplain management strategy reviews the flood protection system for the Whakatane Waimana catchment only. It identifies potential weaknesses in flood protection and plans for the ongoing security of future generations. The executive summary provides an overview of the report. Part one describes the nature of the floodplain, and the measures put in place to best manage floods of date.
