SH1 Ōtaki to Ohau safety improvement project
Earlier this year, we began construction on the Ōtaki to Ohau safety improvements. This work includes sections of side and median barriers, painted wide centrelines and three turnaround bays.
Our contractors are on track to largely complete the first phase of works between Ōtaki and Manakau by Christmas. This includes median barrier and the three turnaround bays at the bottom of Forest Lakes Hill, Pukehou Rail Overbridge and Gleeson Road.
The team are now working hard to complete sections of work between Manakau and Ohau before the holiday break. Up until 22 December, you’ll see construction crews onsite near Waikawa Beach Road and Whakahoro Road working to make the road safer before the holidays.
Construction crews will finish up work for the year on 22 December to avoid further disruption during the busy holiday traffic. The team will be back onsite from 8 January 2024 and expect this work will be complete this summer.
