Updated each week, this page contains a list of current roading and infrastructure works being carried out throughout the Tasman District. Please note that the list is indicative only as weather, personnel availability and unforeseen emergency events may affect roads at short notice. 

Current Road Closures or Limited Access 

A number of roads have been closed or have limited access as a result of the significant flooding event in December 2011. These are listed below.

Aniseed Valley Road Open

Aniseed Valley Road is now open. There are speed restrictions and give way sections beyond the hill where the road is narrow and reduced to a single lane. Residents are urged to drive with caution.

Abel Tasman Drive Wainui Hill - extreme care required

Abel Tasman Drive at Wainui Hill underwent extensive investigation last week. The road is open, however as heavy machinery is in use, road users can expect significant delays. Please drive with extreme care.
