Motorway closures for Auckland Marathon on Sunday
The annual Auckland Marathon takes place on Sunday morning and will have an impact on the Northern Motorway and Auckland Harbour Bridge.
The NZ Transport Agency says the two southbound clip-on lanes of the bridge will be closed from 4am to allow the participants to safely complete the course. It’s planned the lanes will be open again by 11am.
One lane of the Northern Motorway will be closed southbound from Esmonde Rd Interchange to the Onewa road on ramp and two lanes will be closed from there to the bridge. The Onewa Rd southbound on-ramp to the motorway will also be closed.
On the city side of the bridge, the Shelly Beach Rd off-ramp and the Curran St on-ramp will be closed from 4am to 11am. The Fanshawe St off-ramp will be closed from 2am until 3pm.
The Northern Busway Bus Only lanes will be closed from Constellation Drive to Onewa interchange, with runners entering the Busway at Smales Farm.
It is encouraged to use the alternative Western Ring Route, via State Highway 18 and 16 for travel into the city and the Waterview Tunnel and State Highway 20 for southbound journeys.
