A reminder to motorists heading north through Auckland over Easter
A reminder to motorists heading north through Auckland over Easter
14 April 2022
They'll need to avoid Spaghetti Junction from tonight, where important maintenance work will close a section of the Southern Motorway.
From 10.30 tonight through to 7am on Saturday, all northbound lanes on State Highway 1 between Symonds Street and the SH16 link will be closed.
The closure will allow a maintenance team to replace a damaged joint on one of the junction bridges, discovered during routine maintenance.
The failing joint doesn't pose an immediate safety risk, but Waka Kotahi says it needs to be repaired as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, buses will replace trains on all lines this Easter, as maintenance work continues on Kiwirail's Auckland network.
