Work is set to begin on Monday, February 10 to upgrade and install traffic lights at the intersection of State Highway 30 Te Ngae Road and Wharenui Road.
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi advises Rotorua drivers that, as part of this work, a short section of Wharenui Road, between SH30 Te Ngae Road and Reeve Road/Glenfield Road, will be closed to through-traffic.
"This closure will be in place from Monday February 10, not Monday February 3 as earlier stated, until the project is completed in May this year," an NZTA spokesperson said.
"Access for residents, pedestrians and cyclists will be maintained. A detour will be in place for other traffic."
NZTA said temporary footpaths and pedestrian access will be available and clearly signposted.
"Residents, service providers, and visitors will be able to take vehicles into the closed section of Wharenui Road from the Reeve/Glenfield intersection.
"All other traffic will need to use Brent Road or Coulter Road to access eastern Wharenui Road, Reeve Road and Glenfield Road, and any connected roads."
While this work is underway a temporary speed limit of 30km/h will be in place on SH30 Te Ngae Road through the work zone.
"More information about additional traffic management will be shared as construction progresses," an NZTA spokesperson said.
