Puaka-James Hight lifts out of service

The eastern lifts – the lifts furthest from the Library main entrance – in Puaka-James Hight will be out of service for three weeks from Monday 24 June until Sunday 14 July to allow contractors to undertake a planned upgrade. Work will be undertaken daily from 8am until 5pm.

The eastern lifts are next to the eastern stairs, men’s bathroom and security desk. See image below.

During this time, please use the alternative three lifts or stairwell and follow usual evacuation procedures in the event of an emergency.

Thank you for your patience as we undertake these required upgrade works.
