Southbound offramp from SH1 to Peka Peka - temporary closure

Lynsey from Otaki District

The southbound offramp at Peka Peka connecting State Highway 1 to Waikanae will close on two days in mid-November for work to join the new expressway to the old. Vehicles heading south to
the town or to Peka Peka will use the Waikanae interchange at Te Moana Road on those days.
The most likely closure is Tuesday 15 November day and night, reopening late afternoon Wednesday 16 November. Please note, dates may change at short notice due to weather or other factors affecting the work.
For further information, please contact customer@wta.nzta.govt.nz.
