Tinwald traffic delays overnight from Monday for up to six nights
People who travel at night through Tinwald, on SH1, will face short delays from tonight (Monday, November 1) and all this week overnight.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency crews is removing the old highway surface between Manchester and Graham streets and laying new asphalt.
A single lane of traffic will be available 7pm to 6am, with stop/go manual traffic management keeping people moving. Emergency services will be accommodated at all times, Waka Kotahi journey manager Tresca Forrester says.
“This work is of necessity quite noisy, but crews will do their best to get it done as quickly as possible in the overnight hours when traffic numbers are at their lowest.”
The work is weather dependent so a wet night may cause the work to roll onto the next dry night.
At this stage, the work will take place Monday to Friday and Sunday night (November 7) if needed.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
