Ahuroa Road, Puhoi
Road status: open, single lane with stop/go traffic management
4 September 2024
At site RP7784, east of J Tolhopf Road, all piles have been built. The site team is temporarily away while details for the anchors are being addressed. A lane closure with stop/go traffic signals remains in place.
A Mason Contractors maintenance crew is also working on Ahuroa Road, doing extensive road rehabilitation and some minor slip repairs. The current stage, 2B, should be complete by the end of October 2024. The next stage is scheduled to start construction in January 2025 and will complete the remaining section to J Tolhopf Road.
21 August 2024
All piling work is now complete on the site east of J Tolhopf Road (site RP7784). Work on the timber lagging and drainage behind the new wall is now under way.
26 July 2024
Work east of J Tolhopf (site RP7784) is progressing, despite the weather and difficult ground conditions. To date, 38 of 46 piles have been drilled and concreted.
26 June 2024
Two slip sites, near 849 Ahuroa Road and the ‘hairpin’ bend, are set for final guardrail and line-marking work during the first week of July (weather permitting). This will only require a stop/go lane closure.
Work east of J Tolhopf (site RP7784) started on 27 May. Benching is complete and 4 piles have been installed. The team are encountering some hard rock similar to the other repairs along the road. Approximately 2 months’ work remains at this site. Stop/go and occasional stop/stop traffic management is occurring, but no delays have been noted as a result of these Downer works.
22 May 2024
Work on the main slip site near 900 Ahuroa Road has been completed, and the road is now open to residents on a stop/go basis while further slips are being worked on.
Construction works near 859 Ahuroa Road (on the northern side) began in early May, and one lane is closed. All timber piles have been installed and backfilling is under way.
Work beginning near J Tolhopf Road from 27 May is expected to take around 3 months.
Of 8 slips identified along Ahuroa Road, 3 are largely complete, with 5 remaining.
Another 2 slip sites are being repaired alongside road maintenance work further down the road towards Puhoi.
24 April 2024
Downer is planning to begin construction work opposite 859 Ahuroa Road (on the northern side) from Monday 29 April. Access will be maintained with a stop/go in place. This work is expected to take around 4 weeks.
Work continues near 900 Ahuroa Road with a full road closure. Work in this area is expected to take until 7 May.
The design and methodology for repairs to Ahuroa Road at RP 7.784, approximately 50 metres east of J Tolhopf Road, is progressing. Access will be maintained, but at times there may be a delay of 10 minutes when travelling through this section of road. During peak times, Downer will ensure access is uninterrupted. We will provide an update once a construction start date is confirmed.
22 April 2024
All piling has now been completed with a total of 149 piles installed. Our priority now shifts to drainage works and the capping beam. The focus has now shifted to the concrete work on the capping beam of the retaining wall. The heavy machinery within the road corridor restricts both vehicle and pedestrian traffic in the area.
8 April 2024
The construction team is installing the last of the 300m of piling and continuing to install the capping beam, poured to support the retaining wall and road.
18 March 2024
All 900mm 17m piles are in and Downer is now installing 900mm 12m piles using steel casing.
February 2024
Downer is making good progress, with 73 of 150 piles (some up to 17 metres deep) and 80 soil nails in place.
January 2024
Downer has now reestablished all construction equipment on site in preparation for the months ahead. The team is drilling and filling piles on the upper section of the site and the road will continue to remain closed for the duration of these works.
December 2023
Downer, on behalf of Auckland Transport (AT), continues to make progress on the remediation of the roadway on Ahuroa Hill. Since construction activities
began, a total of 16 piles have been drilled across the two sections. This is a considerable effort given the ground conditions which includes hard rock at a much lower depth than expected.
The construction team will be taking a break over the holiday period, from Thursday 22nd December 2023 returning on Monday 8th January 2024. During
this period the road will remain closed with all current temporary traffic management remaining in place.
26 October 2023
Ahuroa Road is proving difficult to repair. The original design was completed and works began in July 2023 on the permanent reinstatement. Unfortunately, the underlying rock layer is substantially deeper than thought, which has required a review of design options and a temporary hold on works.
AT is assessing six new design options and will select the most appropriate. Once we have the preferred option, Downer and AT will be able to provide programme information to the community around timing and options.
AT remains committed to the successful completion of these works and expects that we will be able restart construction within four weeks and have the road open by April 2024.
10 October 2023
On Ahuroa Road, several major slips have completely closed the road through to Puhoi. There has been considerable progress on the slip at Ahuroa Hill RP8200-8600. Soil nails acting like anchors are in place, which means the slope is now stabilised against further erosion. Shotcrete (sprayed-on concrete) was completed in September, as shown in the image on the right. This specialised process involves the high-pressure spraying of concrete onto the retaining wall's surface, reinforcing its structural integrity. Some remaining components for this slip are currently in design.
21 September 2023
Completion of works is expected by February 2024.
7 September 2023
Ahuroa Road is being worked on in sections. Some sections have already been completed, some are in construction. One section near J Tolhopf Road, where there was a major slip, is in the design phase. Designs are being prepared to repair this section in conjunction with the other repairs.
There are several retaining walls to be completed and will be worked on in sections. Each section will be completed separately. Road sealing will be completed afterwards.
30 May 2023
- Final design has been approved. Works to start shortly.
- Road status - open from both ends with one section of road closed at J Tolhopf Road.
3 May 2023
- 8 underslips have been identified.
- Geotechnical investigation has been completed, and an inclinometer has been put in place.
- Preliminarily assessment and design for the road rebuild were completed and presented on 20 April 2023. We are now moving forward to the final design phase using the existing road alignment.
- Road status – open from both ends with one section of the road closed at J Tolhopf Road.

25 September 2024
AT and Downer are expecting to start work on Leigh Road, near Schollum Road, from 7 October 2024. The work will involve the construction of a retaining wall and shoulder repair work. A lane closure will be in place with stop/go operating.
We expect to complete work before Christmas.
Vector will also be operating either side of these works to move powerlines and poles. They will notify residents separately.
26 July 2024
Currently in design. Power cables near the slip site will impact design and construction methodology. We are working with Vector to address this.
Matakana Valley Road, Matakana
Road status: open, single lane with stop/go traffic management
There are 10 slips along Matakana Valley Road. Repairs at the first site started on 29 February 2024. To date, 9 of the 10 sites are complete. We expect to begin work on the 10th site, near the waterfall, in early 2025.
21 August 2024
Site 9 (of 10 sites) has now been largely completed. This month, pavement and asphalting, line marking and guard rail installation have been completed. Minor remedial work will be undertaken as the weather allows. Site 10 remains in design and work is planned to begin later in the year.
26 July 2024
This month, we installed 16 piles at site 9. All piling and retaining wall work is now complete, and pavement work will progress this coming month. Site 10 is still in design. Work should begin later in the year.
26 June 2024
The team here are making great progress and are well ahead of programme. Eight sites have now been completed, with another one under way and one in design.
22 April 2024
Three slip sites have been repaired and another 5 are under way.

The retaining wall at RO5900 is completed and kerb and channel will be installed next. Contractors are working on another three sites.
21 February 2024
Downer, on behalf of AT, will be undertaking permanent repair works on the 10 slip sites across Matakana Valley Road between numbers 732-952 from late February/early March. The construction work includes building retaining wall structures to reinforce and prevent further slips from occurring.
Works will begin near number 952 Matakana Valley Road, with the plan to progressively move through the area as each slip is remediated. Construction is expected to take 10 months, and we will provide regular updates on timelines.
- Hours of work 7am to 7pm, Monday to Friday
- Traffic management includes temporary traffic signals, stop/go and speed restrictions.
22 September 2023
Work commenced on Monday 18 September. After initial works, we found that a design change was required. Works are on hold while we refine the design. Traffic management will remain in place.
20 September 2023
Work commenced on Monday 18 September. Our initial works will involve excavation and site setup before preparing for construction of the timber pole retaining wall. This work is expected to take 6 weeks. Once this is completed, Downer will make their way to the next slip further up on Matakana Valley Road. Resilience work in this area is still in the design phase.
8 September 2023
Work is set to begin on Monday 11 September for a 6-week period. A lane closure will be required with a stop/go in place.

Mill Flat Road Bridge, Coatesville
26 September 2024
The Auckland Transport (AT) design team has completed their part. Our construction team will now take over. We expect to appoint a contractor in October.
Sub-contractors and team members will be doing surveys and preparation works until mid to late October. Pending the survey's findings, Treescape will be on site to do vegetation work.
Before construction starts, Vector needs to move the power lines and poles out of the work area near the bridge. Chorus will be on site with Vector to reconnect power to the new source. That may affect telecommunications and internet access as the changeover happens. Vector and Chorus will liaise with residents about this work.
21 August 2024
An update has been shared with Mill Flat Road residents and the surrounding community this week, following the completion of the design phase of work.
The letter provides detail on the progress to date, outlines the proposed design and highlights some of the key anticipated construction impacts. Download a copy of the Mill Flat Road letter (PDF, 740KB).
29 July 2024
The design stage is now complete. A resource consent application was lodged with Auckland Council in May, and a tender for construction is out. An update was submitted to the Local Board, and an update for the community will go out shortly.
May 2024
A community drop-in session was held on 1 May 2024 to discuss the design to date. (See the April update for details on the design.) Download a summary of this discussion.

Mill Flat Road bridge replacement project
On 27 January 2023, the Mill Flat Road bridge was washed away during the Auckland Anniversary Weekend flooding event. As an emergency response, AT commissioned a Bailey Bridge to be constructed at the same location a week later.
Since then, AT has been investigating options for a permanent Mill Flat Road Bridge replacement, securing the necessary funding and undertaking a design process which includes planned intersection safety improvements on the Coatesville-Riverhead Highway.
What is planned
The Mill Flat Road Bridge current design includes:
- a 2-lane replacement bridge with 3-metre-wide general traffic lanes
- a single 1.5-metre-wide footpath on the southern (downstream) side of the bridge
- a slightly widened approach to the bridge on Mill Flat Road, providing greater sightlines
- no vehicle class or weight restriction
- the ability to be submerged and withstand a one-in-100-year flood event without being washed away.
The new bridge will be located slightly upstream of the current bridge to enable continued community access throughout its construction. It will be constructed in two halves, with traffic running on the temporary Bailey Bridge during the first half of the build. Traffic will then run on the first half bridge while the temporary Bailey Bridge is removed and the second half of the new bridge is constructed.
Concept bridge design and typical cross-section
Intersection Improvements - Mill Flat Road / Coatesville-Riverhead Highway
- The current design includes:
- A right-turn bay on Coatesville-Riverhead Highway leading toward Mill Flat Road.
- Slight widening of the road in this area, including retaining walls on the Rangitopuni Stream side, to accommodate the right-turn bay.
- Improved signage and intersection warnings either side of the intersection.
Next steps
- Finalise the detailed design - July 2024
- Award contract for physical works to the successful tenderer by October 2024
- Construction start - late 2024 for 12 to 16 months.
March 2024
A memorandum was provided to the Local Board in March 2024.
January 2024
Geotechnical investigations will be done at the bridge location from 30 January for approximately one week. Traffic management will be in place and delays are expected at times.
