The Durie Hill Elevator and tunnel will be closed on weekdays from Monday, 18 November to Friday, 29 November so phase two of planned drainage improvements can be completed.
The good news is the elevator will run as usual over the weekend of 23-24 November.
Whanganui Connection will run a replacement shuttle each day during the closure, maintaining the regular weekday hours of 7:30am-6.00pm. The shuttle travels between each entrance (2 Blyth Street and 42 Anzac Parade) – it takes bikes and accepts cash, eftpos and your existing concession tickets. You can also call or text the shuttle ahead at 022 318 8537.
Thank you for your patience during this work.
