Short closures will be in place tomorrow (Wednesday 5 August) on State Highway 27 (SH27), south of Patetonga, for urgent pavement repairs.

The repairs are needed at the entrances to the temporary diversion around the Ohinekaua Stream Bridge replacement site.

People can expect delays of up to 30 minutes between 1pm and 2.30pm while the repairs are carried out (weather permitting). Traffic will be passed through the site between repairs.

The diversion, which will remain in place until the new bridge is completed later this year, is a single-lane temporary bridge and cannot accommodate over dimension vehicles.
