Alternative routes around the district

The Waihenga Bridge on SH53 to Martinborough is sometimes closed due to high river levels. The river’s height is monitored by Greater Wellington Regional Council and a button on our home page called “Current river levels” will take you to this data. Alternative routes to Martinborough are via Gladstone (Ponatahi Road) and Kahutara/Lake Ferry Road, as seen on this map.
