SH1 Brynderwyn Hills suffered significant damage from severe weather events in early 2023, resulting in severe underslips and overslips.
Open in both directions to all traffic.
Three scenic routes are available to access Northland during the closure later this month. The alternative routes are similar to those used during previous closures but will have increased signage and wayfinding to help people navigate these detours.
Alternative scenic routes:
Some detour routes are local roads and may be used by pedestrians, people on bikes, cars and trucks so we ask everyone to drive to the conditions and share the road with care.
For more details about alternative scenie route into Northland, read the frequently ask questions page.
Please allow extra time for travel during the closure and plan your journey before setting out.
