Work scheduled for Anderson Rd roundabout

Drivers who use the SH84/Anderson Road roundabout will need to build in an extra ten minutes for a week at night from early November, NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA) says.

 

The roundabout will be getting fresh asphalt ahead of the holiday season and the area around it will be reduced to single lane for repairs and re-sealing.



During the work period, traffic will be detoured around the site and traffic speeds will be reduced to 30kmph.

 

“There will be detours in place for drivers who would normally take Anderson Road,” NZTA Otago journey manager Nicola Felts said.


“Mt Iron Drive entrance will be closed off Anderson Road also, but residential access will be managed for both those streets. 



“The journey along the detour routes could add ten minutes to the normal trip.”

 

Works are planned to start on Sunday November 3 and run through to Friday November 8, from 8pm each night to 5.30am the following day.


“This work is weather dependent so if it rains it could be postponed to the next run of dry nights,” Nicola said.

 

Residents on Anderson Road and Mt Iron Drive will be allowed access, she said, and emergency vehicles will be accommodated throughout.


HPMV and 50MAX trucks will not have entry to Anderson Road during this period.
