Local Road Update #5 - 1 August 2024, 10:45am

Mackenzie Pass remains closed.

Lilybank road is now open. However, the conditions are still icy and we have posted a temporary speed limits until conditions improve: 50km speed limit on the sealed sections, 80km speed limit on the unsealed sections

We understand SH8 may be reopening shortly, but until it does open access to Lilybank road is via Twizel and Tekapo.

Please keep an eye on NZTA Waka Kotahi social media and journey planner website for updates on state highway conditions.
