Night work on the motorway next week involves earthworks in the median and southbound shoulder, and sheet piling near the southbound side of the Papakura Stream bridge. If it rains, work may be postponed until the next available dry night.
Work during the night will allow our crews to operate equipment safely while adjacent to the existing traffic lanes. Work in the shoulder and median work zones will continue during the daytime next week, but this will not affect traffic movements.
Night closures are typically from 9pm at night to 5am in the morning. Please allow extra time for your journey at night.
It is important that motorists keep to the 80 km/h speed limit past our work areas. There will be ongoing truck and project vehicle movements accessing the shoulder and median work sites. Keeping both motorists and our team members as safe as possible is imperative and we need everyone's help to do this.
As always, we will do our best to minimise effects of these works on motorists as much as we can.
We thank you for your patience as we work to improve journey reliability and safety along the Southern Corridor.
