New Closure Plan Resealing SH1 Through Mangamukas

Ian Crayton-Brown from Northland Road Safety

The NZ Transport Agency advises motorists in the Far North that it plans to go ahead with resurfacing State Highway 1 through the Mangamuka Gorge, starting this weekend.

However, in response to community feedback, it has changed the road closure times and days, says NZ Transport Agency System Manager, Steve Mutton.

The new plan is to close the road for four days at a time, instead of three.

The first closure, which is dependent on dry weather, will take place on:

Saturday, 24 February
Sunday 25 February
Monday 26 February
Tuesday 27 February.

On each day, the road will be:

Closed at 8:30am
Open 4pm–5pm
Closed 5pm–8pm.
