Extension to estimated completion date for University Drive closure.
The estimated re-opening of University Drive has been extended from 30 September until 30 November.
How this could affect you:
2 Sept- 30 November 2024
- University Drive will be closed from Fine Arts Lane to Clyde Road.
- A two-lane diversion will be in place on Clyde Road.
- No entry to Clyde Road at Creyke Road
- Exit will be allowed from Clyde Road toward Memorial Ave; Clyde Road left to Creyke Road (one way) and right into Kotare St.
- Expect reduced on street parking.
In response to previous questions raised we can confirm:
- Pedestrian and cycle access into University Drive remains open and you can enter and exit the university on foot or by cycle.
- This just may be from a very slightly different place to what you are used to.
- You can also enter or exit by vehicle, but only via Fine Arts Lane while University Drive is closed.
- The footpath management is designed to navigate the works at University Drive / Clyde Rd (university side). The footpath needs to be closed at this location.
- On the opposite side of the road (Hinau Street side) the footpath remains open.
- The pedestrian signage on this side details how to safely navigate the works area.
.
- The signage on site should all be directing pedestrians / cyclists to use a temporary crossing point on Clyde Rd outside #60 Clyde Rd.
- Depending on which way you are approaching the area, you may need to walk or cycle up or down Clyde Road until you reach the safe crossing zone outside #60 Clyde Road.
