Wānaka-Mount Aspiring Road Closures

In early December, Downer will be carrying out works to construct a retaining wall along a section of Wānaka-Mount Aspiring Road north of the Treble Cone access road near Glenfinnan Stream.

To complete these works safely and efficiently, Wānaka-Mount Aspiring Road will need to be closed near Glenfinnan Stream on weekdays for two weeks, including one 24 hour closure so concrete for the retaining wall can cure properly.

Weekday closures will generally operate from 9.00am to 12.00pm (except on Tuesday 10 December) and 1.00pm to 5.00pm and include a one hour window from 12.00pm to 1.00pm where the road will open to vehicles.

We ask residents and anyone else expecting to head through the closure point to please plan ahead and either travel before or after the closure times, or during the midday window when this section of road is open.
