Ōtaki Gorge Rd closes for three months

Reporter Community News

Ōtaki Gorge Rd will be closed for about three months, while work at the intersection of State Highway 1 is carried out.
A detour would send traffic down Hautere Cross Rd, School Rd, and the new Te Hori Beach Road overbridge, leaving residents concerned about safety.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency announced the works earlier this week, part of a new bypass of Ōtaki with an estimated construction cost of $405 million, up from the reported $330 million in August last year.
Local residents have said it will turn a five minute drive to the supermarket into a 20 minute trip.
