This week’s night closures for resealing on State Highway 2 Hawke’s Bay Expressway have been postponed due to the forecast rain.
However, the closure on this Wednesday night (22 January) between Meannee Road and Pākōwhai Road/Links Road roundabouts will still take place 8pm and 5am, as the barrier installation planned at this location is not weather dependent.
The new dates for resealing are:
From Monday 27 to Friday 31 January, sections of SH2 Hawke’s Bay Expressway will be closed from 8pm to 5am each night. The work will be finished by 5am on Saturday 1 February.
- 27 – 29 Jan – Between Prebensen Drive and Taradale Road roundabouts, closed for 3 nights. Local road detour suitable for all vehicles.
- 30 Jan – Kennedy Road on ramp, closed for 1 night. Local road detour suitable for all vehicles.
- 30 – 31 Jan – Between Meeanee Road and Pākōwhai Road/Links Road, closed for 2 nights. Local road detour not suitable for heavy vehicles.
SH50 Links Road resealing – no change
At this stage, weather is not expected to disrupt the resealing of SH50 Links Road and work will go ahead as planned on Friday night.
The road, between SH50 Korokipo Road and SH2 Hawke’s Bay Expressway, will be closed Friday 24 January and Saturday 25 January, 8pm to 5am each night.
People travelling on SH50 wanting to access the expressway will be detoured through Waiohiki, onto Gloucester Street and right into Meeanee Road before joining the expressway. The reverse will apply for people travelling the expressway who want to access SH50.
The detour is expected to add approximately 5-10 minutes to people’s journeys.
Existing weight restrictions apply to heavy vehicles on Redclyffe Bridge at Waiohiki (8 Tonne) and Ngaruroro River Bridge at Omahu/Fernhill.
If vehicles exceed these restrictions, there is no access during closure times.
NZTA thanks people for their understanding and patience while these important works take place.

The resealing works planned for Monday 27 January to Friday 31 January along sections of SH50 between Ngaruroro River Bridge at Omahu/Fernhill and Omarunui Road, have been rescheduled to the following week (Monday 3 February to Friday 7 February).
That work will take place during the day between 7am and 5pm. Please expect delays of up to 10 minutes to journey times as sections of the road will be under stop/go traffic management.
