The NZ Transport Agency is giving early notice of the planned closures scheduled over the next 12 months which include four one-night closures and three blocks of five consecutive night closures.
The first one-night closure is on Sunday 10 November from 9pm to 4am Monday, followed by five consecutive nights from Sunday 24 November to Friday morning 29 November.
There are a further five consecutive night closures next year, scheduled for Sunday 12 January to Friday 17 January, and Sunday 3 May to Friday 8 May. The remaining one-night closures are scheduled for Sunday 5 April, Sunday 12 July and Sunday 13 September. During these periods, the 14 kilometre stretch of road will be closed from 9pm to 4am.
