High winds on Harbour Bridge
NZTA Waka Kotahi has shared an important message about the Harbour Bridge.
What you need to know:
- MetService has issued a strong wind warning for the Auckland region.
- Wind warning on Auckland Harbour Bridge today with strong wind gusts from now until early afternoon (approximately 1pm).
- In preparation the lanes on the Harbour Bridge will be in 4 x 4 formation mid morning, and remain in place until the warning has been lifted.
- There will be speed and lane restrictions in place. Motorists are urged to drive to the conditions and look out for the electronic message boards which will indicate lane closures or full closures (depending on wind thresholds) and reduced speeds, and stay within their lane while travelling across the bridge.
- Drivers of high sided vehicles and motorcyclists are advised to avoid the Auckland Harbour Bridge today and use the western ring route on State Highways 16 and 18. NZTA recommends motorists use the western ring route where possible.
NZTA thanks road users for their patience and understanding. You can keep up to date with traffic updates here.
