The New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) is urging drivers to take extra care and be prepared for the possibility of short-notice lane closures or reduced speeds on the Auckland Harbour Bridge overnight.
Wind gusts of around 75-80km/h are forecast for the bridge from midnight to 4am tomorrow, April 30, triggering an amber alert.
在黄色警报下，限速可能会降低，大桥上的部分车道可能会关闭。
预警期间，大桥将保持 4×4 配置。
If the alert period is extended, this configuration may remain in place during the Wednesday morning peak traffic period.
Drivers of high-sided vehicles and motorcyclists are advised to avoid the Auckland Harbour Bridge and use the western ring route on State Highways 16 and 18.
For up to date information about any restrictions on the bridge, look out for the electronic message boards which indicate lane closures and reduced speeds.
