Hi there,

Just to let you know that if you are planning on coming to the NZ Art Show this weekend, it is probably best to take the train. Here's info from the NZ Art Show website:

***UPDATE, just been informed Kapiti line will be replaced by buses this weekend too...never mind, car option might be best still for Kapiti, lol. ***

"Jervois Quay, in front of the TSB Arena, will be closed in both directions commencing Thursday June 3rd from 7pm until 6am Tuesday June 8th. Much needed storm water pipes are being installed.

The NZ Art Show is taking place in the TSB Arena over this Queens Birthday period. We apologise for the inconvenience but we know that the effort to visit the NZ Art Show will be worth it!

Southbound detours will be in place along Featherston Street, Hunter Street, Victoria Street and Willeston Street and northbound drivers will have a range of options along Lambton Quay, The Terrace and SH1.

The Wilson carpark underneath Queens Wharf will be available as normal – access will be via via Lady Elizabeth Lane, opposite Whitmore Street.

Traffic will be controlled and it will be clearly signposted. A separate temporary drop off and loading area will be available for picking up your purchases.

See the map below for the closure details and rest assured we will keep you updated at all times.

We thank you for your patience and encourage you to visit the NZ Art Show – so much creative NZ talent all under one roof – don’t let road works get in your way!

I can assure you that we will do everything we can to minimise the impact, the timing is not ideal and we are disappointed, but this work is important for the city and we remain positive."

Many thanks and hope to see you there!

If this sounds like you, we want to hear from you! The Homed team is giving you the opportunity to show us the home you've retired to and tell us why you love it. If you haven't quite left your career behind and you're planning your retirement we want to hear about it on Stuff Nation.

Remember - this doesn't have to be a one off. You can ask your neighbours for business recommendations for DIY products, advice on home improvement or even to invite your neighbours over for a house warming when your forever home is completed.
