Pūhoi Road Night time Closure – UPDATE – 24-26 May 2020

Dear Neighbour,

I hope this email finds you safe and well as we learn to adjust to new ways of living to reduce the risk of COVID-19, we acknowledge this is a difficult and uncertain time for all of us.

In late March 2020, the Ara Tūhono – Pūhoi to Warkworth structures team had almost finished the night works installing large beams on the Arawhiti ki Pūhoi Bridge across Pūhoi Road. However, work was stopped as we moved to Covid-19 Alert Level 4 on 26 March. Our team now needs three more nights to finish the beam installation, and we plan to start these works on Sunday 24 May. Please see the attached Works Notification for your reference.

For safety reasons and to minimise disruption, the work will be carried out at night. A small section of Pūhoi Road will be closed at night from Sunday 24 May to Tuesday 26 May between 9:00 pm to 04:30 am. Signposted detours and traffic management will be in place. Please note the dates are weather dependant and may be postponed if necessary.

Please be assured that we are focused on ensuring the health and safety of our staff and the public during this time and request that physical distancing requirements be respected. Please do not approach our teams or enter our work sites without formal approval.

I will continue to keep you update on the night time closures and any works that will be happing in the future near Pūhoi.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Dear Neighbour,

I writing to update you about the night-time road closure at Pūhoi.
On Friday 13 March our Pūhoi Road site(SAP10a) will receive x6 big truck deliveries from 10am – 1.30pm. Traffic management will be in place intermittently to allow this to happen safely (day time only).
Sunday15 March, Pūhoi Road will be CLOSED during the hours of 9pm – 4.30am. Road closures are planned for the rest of the week, but we are aware that there is a tropical cyclone heading our way. For everyone’s safety, the lifting of the beams will not take place in bad weather and may need to be postponed. I will update you as and when things change regarding the weather as we may not make the call until the day before each beam lift.

There should be a VMS road sign on Pūhoi road near the pub that will say if the road ahead is open or closed, this can be updated every half hour.

The project team will work hard to minimise disruptions, we thank you for your patience and support while we complete this important work.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Puhoi Road Closure for Motorway Works

I contacted Auckland Transport to get more information about the upcoming Puhoi Road closures for night works.  This is the information I’ve received so far.  I’ll send updates as I get them, since I’m on the mailing list for that now.  Cheers, Mike Jensen

Pūhoi Road closure for girder installation at Arawhiti ki Pūhoi Bridge

Our Structures team from Ara Tūhono – Pūhoi to Warkworth will be installing large beams/girders on the Arawhiti ki Pūhoi Bridge across Pūhoi Road during the night. For safety reasons, a small section of Pūhoi Road will be closed at night while this happens, signposted detours will be in place. There will be stop/go traffic management during the nights detailed below.

Schedule of road closures and stop/go traffic management.

Work will take place at night from 9:00 pm to 04:30 am, with regular updates to those most affected.

Sun 01 Mar to Thur 05 Mar 2020 Sunday 01 March – Open

Monday 02 – Closed – 9pm – 4.30am

During the road closures, the team will use a crane to install the beams/girders on Arawhiti ki Pūhoi Bridge. The team will also be installing the bracing for the girders. There will not be road closures on Friday and Saturday nights to allow access to the local tavern and sports club.

What does this mean for you?

Pūhoi Road (blue line on below map) will be closed on dates noted above during the hours of 09:00 pm and 04:30 am, and signposted detours will be in place. As the detours will add a considerable amount of time to journeys, people are encouraged to plan their travel for outside the closure hours, where possible.

Traffic management will be on site to guide traffic. They will also be available on Pūhoi Rd to assist residents that live within the road closure area.

 Safety

For your safety and ours, please ensure you follow the direction of our traffic management team and the safety measures in place. Thank you for your patience while we get this important work done.

Please don’t hesitate to contact our communications team via email: [email protected] or our 24/7 freephone: 0508 P2WK INFO (0508 7295 4636) if you have any questions.

If you travel regularly during these times, we would appreciate if you could let us know in advance, so we can keep you updated.

We acknowledge the inconvenience of these works to motorists and Pūhoi residents and thank you for your understanding while we complete this important work.
