Work on the Waikeria pipeline project is back under way on Mangapiko St in Te Awamutu, as the project restarts under Covid-19 alert level 3.
Work is being undertaken under strict guidelines to enforce physical distancing, contact tracing and increased hygiene measures.
Waipā District Council's service delivery group manager, Dawn Inglis, said the project is well-prepared for workers to carry out work safely on site under new health and safety guidelines.
"The majority of works take place using machinery and are manned with one person, where this isn't possible, work bubbles have been established with strict contact tracing to ensure people can be stood down quickly if someone is confirmed with Covid-19," said Dawn.
"One way the public can help our teams out is by maintaining their distance while out and about.
