SH1 will be closed for up to 7 nights between Monday 20 October to Thursday 30 October, from 6pm to 5:30am.

The closure will not be in place from Friday 24 to Monday 27 October, over the long weekend.

This route is suitable for regular heavy freight, but oversized loads may not be able to use the Loop Road detour due to the single lane bridges, please confirm before your journey.
