Haast Pass to Wanaka road - one lane open

Sep 10, 2018

NZTA says the Haast Pass road is now open to traffic, using one lane only, after a serious rock fall near Makarora. The road was closed at 7.00 am this morning.

The road will close again from 7.00 pm this evening for further repairs. A stop/go traffic control system is being used to allow traffic through in both directions until then.

The NZTA pans to re-open the one lane of traffic from 8.00 am Tuesday morning.

Here's a link to the NZTA incident report. The NZTA is also on Facebook.
