NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi advises that State Highway 30 between Onepū Spring Road and Military Road near Otakiri will close on Monday, May 13 between 6am and 6.30pm.

This is to enable resurfacing on the road near the railway track to be undertaken.  

A detour will be in place for all traffic in both directions via State Highway 34 through Kawerau and then rejoining SH30.

This detour is expected to add up to 10 minutes to journey times. 

Work on the Tarawera River bridge walkway will be put on hold for the day to allow the detoured traffic to travel through Kawerau. 

NZTA thanks people for their patience while this important maintenance work is carried out.  

Plan ahead for a safe, enjoyable journey. Keep up to date with:
