Notification of construction works – Great North Road Warkworth culvert

Wharehine Construction Limited on behalf of NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) will be carrying out recovery works on Great North Road (Old SH1) Warkworth as part of the storm recovery programme.

The programme of works is scheduled to take place from Monday 31 March 2025 to 11 April 2025.

What works will be involved?

To ensure the safety of motorists and our construction team, temporary traffic management will be required.

***A full 24 hour road closure will be in place from Hill Street intersection to Hudson Road intersection.***

Access for residents within the closure area will be maintained however.

While they will aim to minimise disruption, the culvert replacement means a full closure will be necessary. This will create delays for drivers. However, this will allow the recovery work to be completed as quickly as possible.

Please plan ahead and allow extra time to accommodate these delays.

WORKS: Replacing the existing culvert and inlet structure upgrade to alleviate flooding

WHEN: Monday 31st March 2025 to Friday 11th April 2025

WORK HOURS: 7:30am to 6:30pm (with some night works possible also)

WHERE: Adjacent to 41 Great North Road, Warkworth
