SH1 WARKWORTH-WELLSFORD - OVERNIGHT CLOSURES - FEB
State Highway 1 between Warkworth and Wellsford will be closed to all traffic for 12 nights to undertake repairs and resurfacing in the Dome Valley area (between Wayby Valley Rd & Hudson Rd). Closures will be in place from 8pm to 5am each night for an initial 2 nights, Wed & Thu 08-09 February, then followed by 5 further nights, Sun 12 to Thu 16 February, followed by 5 more nights, Sun 19 to Thu 23 February, with no closures occurring on Friday or Saturday nights.
During overnight closures a detour will be in place using Woodcocks Rd, West Coast Rd, and SH16 (Kaipara Coast Hwy and Port Albert Rd) between Warkworth and Wellsford. Please plan ahead as this detour may add up to 40 minutes travel time to your journey. Traffic Map info: http://spr.ly/61873gKzL
In addition NX2 work at the Southern Connection in the Puhoi area will require closures on the Northern Mwy (northbound between Silverdale and Puhoi, southbound between Puhoi and Orewa) on 10 of the 12 nights above, between 9pm and 5am each night. Travel between Silverdale and Warkworth will be possible with a local detour via Hibiscus Coast Hwy and SH1 between Puhoi and Warkworth.
Through traffic (especially heavy vehicles) should use SH16 entirely between Auckland Central and Wellsford, or exit the Northern Mwy at Silverdale and use Kahikatea Flats Rd to SH16 to continue north. Traffic Map info: http://spr.ly/6180MNkBC
