Breakdown Closes SH1 Brynderwyns Detour Route
Due to a breakdown on Paparoa Oakleigh Road, opposite Paparoa Station Road, Paparoa Oakleigh Road is now closed in both directions.
Variable message signs are in place and heavy trucks and HPMV’s must use State Highways 12 and 14 through Dargaville and on to Whangārei, while light vehicles can continue to use the Cove Road detour.
Temporary traffic management crews and vehicle recovery have been dispatched to the scene with a resolution expected to take up to three hours.
We ask people to please plan ahead and allow extra time to complete their journey using either Cove Road or SH12/SH14, or to consider delaying their journey.
