Temporary Closure for Silverdale Road WorksMillwater Parkway closures start 8 November

Coasties are set to see some changes on Millwater Parkway as Auckland Transport undertakes essential resurfacing work between Silverdale Street and The Settlement in Silverdale.


The project, aimed at improving road conditions and safety, will involve temporary traffic adjustments and restricted on-street parking.


The resurfacing is scheduled to begin on Friday, 8 November, and is expected to last three days, with additional days reserved until Saturday, 16 November, in case of delays.





Auckland Transport will conduct the work between 7 am and 7 pm, applying chip seal surfacing to extend the road’s lifespan and maintain safety for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike.


During these hours, temporary traffic controls will be in place, including stop/go signs, lower speed limits, and traffic lights to help manage traffic flow and protect both workers and road users.


Residents and visitors are advised that on-street parking along Millwater Parkway will be limited.


Auckland Transport suggests parking on private property or nearby streets and following all posted parking restrictions.


The project will involve a phased approach: one day prior to resurfacing, no-parking signs will be posted, and notifications left on vehicles.


Once the resurfacing is completed, Auckland Transport will perform an initial sweep to clear loose chip, with a second sweep planned six weeks later to ensure the road remains smooth and safe.


Auckland Transport’s team will be on-site to guide drivers, and signage will be posted to ensure a smooth flow of traffic.
