Due to the weather forecast over the next two days, the planned closures on Queen Charlotte Drive between Shakespeare Bay and the Picton lookout, will not be in operation on Thursday 11 or Friday 12 April. These closures are planned to resume on Monday 15 April.
---------------------------------
From Monday 8 to Friday 19 April on weekdays, Queen Charlotte Drive will be closed between the Picton Lookout and Shakespeare Bay between 9am to 3pm. There will be openings on the hour, every hour to clear waiting traffic.
Between 7am to 9am, works will be undertaken under stop/go traffic management, with up to 10 minute delays.
Please be aware that it can take some time to clear the queues, so you may not travel through the site exactly on the hour.
These closures are for Port Marlborough to undertake logging operations and the removal of wilding pines and wattles.
Please follow all instruction from traffic management and plan for delays.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
