Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency is warning Aucklanders to be prepared for several overnight motorway closures next week.

Closures will start at 9pm and finish at 5am, unless otherwise stated, allowing for overnight roadworks and maintenance to take place. 

"There is a wide range of overnight road work closures planned on the Auckland Motorway network for the upcoming week including northbound Waterview tunnel closures," says NZTA.

All overnight closures will be subject to weather and "other factors" meaning they could be cancelled or postponed at late notice.

NZTA says motorists should check their website prior to their journeys for the most up to date closure information.
