Road closure to impact traffic in Reefton
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi | 16 Feb 2026 12:44pm | West Coast
Travel in the heart of Reefton may require a short detour as a closure is put in place for significant roadworks.
State Highway 69/Potter Street at the intersection of Buller Road is scheduled to be closed weekdays, 7am to 6pm, from Monday 23 February through to Friday 13 March. The closure is to allow roading surface construction to take place faster and more safely.
A detour will be available for all vehicles via Crampton Road and Broadway.
The work is weather dependent and may be postponed on days where conditions are unsuitable for contractors to work. If this happens, notice will be provided.
We thank people for their patience and understanding as this important and necessary work is carried out. Stay up to date at our Journey Planner site.
