Wellington drivers are reminded to be ready for upcoming roadworks on State Highway 1 on the Kāpiti Coast next week.
The Raumati Straights on State Highway 1, north of Mackays Crossing, will undergo significant improvements from Sunday, 3 November, until early December.
A road rebuild will be carried out on two kilometres of the left northbound lane, making this section of the highway smoother and safer.
Road crews will be working at nights when traffic volumes are lower and to minimise disruption as much as possible.
A single northbound lane will remain open at night, and southbound lanes will be open as usual.
During the day, both northbound lanes will be open but under a temporary speed limit.
The scope of the work involved means some traffic delays are likely.
Drivers are asked to obey the speed limits and traffic management in place. This protects the road work site, keeps drivers safe, and prevents vehicle damage.
NZTA/Waka Kotahi and the Wellington Transport Alliance thank drivers for their patience and understanding while this essential state highway maintenance is completed.
