A main road in Whangarei will be closed overnight throughout this week, as work to improve the intersection of Kamo Rd, Kensington Ave and Nixon St continues.
The intersection - as well as the section of Kamo Rd directly north of it - will be closed from 7pm to 6.30am from tonight until Sunday to replace an underground stormwater drain.
Large illuminated message boards will warn motorists of the work and temporary detours, which will be along Kensington Ave to Park Ave for northbound traffic, and down Nixon St/Hatea Drive for southbound traffic.
Whangarei District Council project manager Mark Seakins said drivers should take care and expect delays.
"I'd also like to thank people in advance for their patience.
