Auckland motorway closures: Partial Waterview Tunnel closure among city's mass motorway works

A partial closure of Auckland's Waterview Tunnel is just one of a slew of motorway closures around the city this week.

As part of its usual overnight road closures to undertake maintenance across Auckland, Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency warns locals to be prepared in case any of their work affects people's journeys.

Unless otherwise stated, closures from June 6 to June 10 begin at 9pm and finish at 5am.

"Please note that all overnight motorway closures are subject to weather and other factors and may be cancelled or postponed at late notice," NZTA says.

Anyone travelling on the affected routes is asked to follow the signposted detours.
