Strong winds are forecast on the Auckland Harbour Bridge between 7am and 8pm tomorrow (Tuesday 20 January), which may impact road users travelling over the bridge.
Wind gusts of 75-85km/h are forecast, which may result in lane closures.
The bridge will remain in 4x4 configuration throughout the day tomorrow.
Motorists are advised to drive to the conditions and pay attention to electronic message boards on the motorway, which will advise if any lane closures and reduced speed limits are required.
If there is potential for sudden and high wind gusts on the bridge, lowering the speed limit gives motorists time to react and take more care.
