Update on Telephone Road crossing re-opening
Work to upgrade the rail crossing at SH1B Telephone Road and adjacent Holland Road intersection is progressing well, with work on track to finish around mid-May.
When the roading part of the project is complete, Holland Road at the intersection with Marshmeadow Road will reopen to traffic, after being closed at the start of work in February.
SH1B and the rail crossing will remain closed to traffic until railway signals have been put in place and both KiwiRail and NZ Transport Agency have agreed that it is safe to do so.
KiwiRail have advised that their signal work is scheduled to take place in the second half of July, however they are investigating options that may allow the crossing to reopen to traffic sooner.
We will keep the community updated when we have a confirmed date for the rail crossing to reopen.
