State Highway 2 Remutaka Hill maintenance closure - 5 nights in SeptemberThe SH2 Remutaka Hill will close for essential maintenance and safety improvements for five nights from Sunday 1 September to Thursday 5 September. The closure runs from 9pm to 4am each night. Escort Crossings We are able to escort drivers over the hill at certain times during the closure. Bookings can now be made online with NZTA Wellington Transport Alliance using this link: Remutaka Hill Closure Escort Booking Form People wanting to cross the hill during the closure should book in advance for a place on the escorted crossings. Please book by 4pm Friday, 30 August for Sunday 1 September and by 4pm day of for the other nights. Any issues, please email customer@wta.nzta.govt.nz The escort crossings will occur at:
Escorted crossings are available for light vehicles only. To keep our workers safe, heavy vehicles cannot be accommodated. Please be patient - the crossings will be slow for everyone's safety. Numbers are strictly limited and vehicles turning up without a booking risk being turned away or having to wait at the closure point for the next opportunity. If you have a genuine emergency on the night, the Hill Manager will decide how best to help you. Access will be available for 'flashing light' emergency services throughout the closure. We understand the closures may inconvenience some road users and thank you for your patience and understanding as we carry out this essential maintenance work. These regular night closures significantly reduce the number of disruptions for road users at other times. Road crews can complete a large amount of work safely during these closures because multiple crews can work across the hill at the same time without disrupting traffic.
