The full force of Cyclone Gabrielle is making itself known in the Coromandel and East Waikato, causing extremely dangerous driving conditions due to slips, flooding, storm surges and debris on the roads.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency warns road users to expect more closures as slips and flooding caused by the arrival of Cyclone Gabrielle jeopardise safe travel on State Highways in the Coromandel and East Waikato.
High winds, possible short-notice state highway closures, flooding and fallen debris should be expected when travelling around both Hawke’s Bay and Gisborne regions.
High wind and steady rain is impacting roads around the Coromandel Peninsula with State Highway 25 (SH25) compromised by multiple fallen trees, surface flooding and other debris on the road. The highway is fully closed in some sections.
The details below outline the main planned state highway roadworks occurring in the greater Wellington region and the top of the South Island over the coming week (12 February 2023).
With more rain forecast next week contractors have taken the opportunity to batten down the hatches, preparing the state highway network for what is to come.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency advises of the following closures for motorway improvements. Work delayed by bad weather will be completed at the next available date, prior to Friday, 17 February 2023.
