Work is underway to replace three sections of seawall that support part of Massey Road, the coastal transport route in Maupuia. To enable this work, the road connecting Shelly Bay to Scorching Bay will be closed to motorists for 5 months from June – October 2026.

What are we doing

We’re replacing a total of 220m of existing seawall in two separate locations along Massey Road:

One section (86m) in Mahanga Bay, opposite #270 Massey Road
Two sections (76m & 57m) in Kau Bay, approximately 200m south of Point Halswell Lighthouse

Preliminary construction began in March 2026 with works on all three seawalls expected to be complete by October 2026 through utilisation of the road closure. Traffic management is currently in place around the construction sites.

Road closure

From June - October 2026, Massey Road will be closed between Point Halswell Lighthouse and Herbies Beach (pullover area), north of Scorching Bay.

What you need to know:

No cars, motorcycles, or heavy vehicles can use the road during this period, with the exception of construction traffic and emergency services.
Pedestrians and cyclists can continue to use the road both ways with traffic control in place.
To access the eastern bays, traffic will be redirected through Miramar, over the eastern hills into Karaka Bay (via Awa Road).
Alternatively, cars can access these areas via Seatoun tunnel or from Breaker Bay.
Standard working hours will be 6am–6pm, Monday–Saturday for the duration of the road closure.

A full road closure allows for scheduled works at both sites to be completed over one 5-month period. This will:

bring forward the completion date for all three walls from Feb/March 2027 to October 2026,
reduce disruption to road users by an estimated 5 months (outside the summer season), and
reduce overall traffic management costs by an estimated 50%.

The road closure has the added benefit of allowing other suitable maintenance works to be carried out in the area safely, reducing future im

"Vonuts is a small Wellington donut shop serving fresh handmade donuts, great coffee, and monthly changing flavours that are a little fun and nostalgic. We always have plant-based and gluten-free options available as well.

After five years in the CBD on Willis Street, we recently opened our second store at 24 Southampton Road in Miramar. The Miramar shop is also home to our kitchen, where all our donuts are baked fresh every morning for both stores.

We love getting to know local regulars and creating spaces that feel warm, welcoming and community focused. Whether you stop by for a quick coffee or a box of donuts to share, we’re always happy to have you."
