New dates have now been confirmed for overnight maintenance on State Highway 2 between Ohinepaaka Stream and Waihua River Bridges.
The road will close for 3 nights – 20, 21 and 22 January - between 8pm and 5am each night.
The work was due to take place this week but was postponed due to heavy forecast rain.
During next month’s closure, crews will resurface the abutment (approach) connecting Ohinepaaka Stream Bridge and the road. This follows recent work to rebuild the road surface.
At the same time, crews will be carrying out work to the deck of the Waihua River Bridge.
The bridge is structurally sound and next month’s work will focus on making repairs to the deck of the bridge.
Once the bridge work is complete, the temporary speed limit of 30 km/h is likely to be lifted.
The 3 night closure is needed because the area is narrow and the asphalt machinery is too large to allow for a single lane of traffic.
Plan ahead for a safe, enjoyable journey. Keep up to date with:
