NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi | 9 Nov 2026 11:08am | Auckland

Road users may encounter delays during chipsealing works on State Highway 16 (SH16) between Wellsford and Restall Road.

Between Monday 16 November and Saturday 12 December, lane restrictions and stop/go traffic management will be in place at various locations on SH16.

Temporary speed restrictions will remain in place after the chipseal has been placed to settle and protect vehicles travelling over the road.

Motorists should allow extra time for their journey. Nearby properties may also experience increased noise while the team complete the work.

Over dimension vehicles travelling through site locations may need to pull over until the site is safe to travel through.

Specific dates and locations are outlined below:

  • Mon 16 Nov – Sun 22 Nov: Wharehine Road and West Coast Road
  • Mon 23 Nov – Sun 29 Nov: Wainui Stream Bridge to Jordan Road
  • Mon 30 Nov – Sun 6 Dec: Jordan Road to Woodhill Park Road
  • Mon 7 Dec – Sat 12 Dec: Woodhill Park Road to Omaumau Road
