Tauranga resurfacing works this week

Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency advises resurfacing works will take place at two sites in and around Tauranga during the week beginning Sunday 13 September.

These works are part of the Waka Kotahi spring/summer road maintenance programme, which will see repairs and reseals on state highways across the Bay of Plenty.

Work will be undertaken at night to reduce the impact on motorists. Delays are expected and motorists are asked to take extra care.

• SH29, between Soldiers Road and Valley View Road – Stop/Go traffic management will be in place between 7pm and 6am on the nights of Monday 14 and Tuesday 15 September.

• SH2 Takitimu Drive/15th Ave off-ramp – A lane closure will be in place between 7pm and 5am on the nights of Wednesday 16 and Thursday 17 September.

There will be temporary speed limits of 30km/h in place during the works.

In the event of bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances, work will be postponed. Visit the interactive Waka Kotahi Journey Planner website (journeys.nzta.govt.nz(external link)) for the latest information on roadworks, traffic, road closures and detours to help plan your trip.
