Mercury is improving access up Kahuterawa and Greens roads to access its Turitea wind farm site and transmission line works. Changes are happening to the Te Araroa trail in the hills above Palmerston North to make sure walkers stay safe navigating their way through the Turitea wind farm construction site. Greens Rd will remain open during works associated with its upgrade, but traffic controls are in place.
