Our roading team is working hard to rebuild the section of Ponatahi Road just north of Martinborough and get it back to two lanes before Christmas.

Once the road is rebuilt, it will be initially left unsurfaced to settle, and then resurfaced in the New Year.

We appreciate your patience with the temporary traffic management and the speed limit of 30km/h while we repair the affected area.

Please drive with care when travelling that section of the road.
