Road Closures

Queenstown - Glenorchy Road
Glenorchy - Paradise Road

The Queenstown Lakes District Council wishes to advise that road closures will take place at the 25 Mile Bridge on the Queenstown- Glenorchy Road and at Precipice Creek Bridge on the Glenorchy-Paradise Road during the next fortnight to enable bridge repairs and upgrades.

Work on the 25 Mile Bridge will commence on Wednesday 18 of April and the bridge will be open for 5 minutes every hour and half hour from 8am to 5pm i.e the first closure will take place at 8.05 am. The last day for work is Saturday 21 April.

Work on the Precipice Creek Bridge will commence on Monday 23 April and finish on Friday 27 April. Once again, the bridge will be open for 5 minutes every hour and half hour from 8am to 5pm.

QLDC Network Operations Engineer Michael Wardill said road users would need to put some thought into timetabling their journeys to avoid delays but the end result would be safer roads.
