Re-surfacing work on State Highway 2
The NZ Transport Agency advises motorists that re-surfacing work on two sections of State Highway 2, has been re-scheduled to start on Sunday, November 18 for five nights. It will start this Sunday and Monday nights between Dobson Road and Mangatawhiri Road near the SH1 interchange at Pokeno. It will continue from Tuesday to Thursday between Dimmock Road and Heaven Road before the SH2/25 roundabout leading to Thames.
The resurfacing will take place between 7pm and 5am when traffic is lightest and the road crews can work, quickly, safely and efficiently. There will be stop/go traffic management to keep one lane open and a temporary 30 kph speed limit in place, but motorists should expect delays. Read more
