Upcoming road closures on the route for maintenance works
Maintenance contractor Downer will be undertaking maintenance works, including slip clearing and pavement and drainage works at the following locations:
o SH43 at the Tahora Saddle, just south of Mangowata Road
o SH43 at the Tāngarākau Gorge
o SH43 between the Tāngarākau Gorge and the Paparata Saddle.
Work is expected to start on 21 August and will take approximately two weeks to complete.
Due to the narrow, winding nature of the road, the work will need to be done under road closures between 9.30am and 2pm. Closing the road will enable crews to carry out the work as safely and efficiently as possible.
Road users are encouraged to avoid travel through the area where possible or check the Journey Planner ahead of travel for details of the closure points.
Crews may be working on various sites at once to get the work done as soon as possible when weather allows so closures may be in place at multiple locations. Residents can talk to crews on-site for access.
