A series of overnight closures will affect key on- and off-ramps, and a flyover, across Tauranga’s state highway network.
Starting on Wednesday August 13, between 8pm and 5am, the works are part of essential resurfacing maintenance before the 2025/26 summer maintenance programme starts in September.
