Motorists, residents and businesses have been thanked for their patience over the weekend during the temporary closure of a stretch of State Highway 2 in Bayfair.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency said the section had reopened this morning after it was closed on Friday night.
The closure was to allow work on constructing the second of Bay Link's three bridges.
Over the weekend, 10 reinforced concrete beams 26 metres long and weighing 47 tonnes each were positioned in the middle of SH2 by a 350-tonne crane.
"Following placement of the beams, further work is required to complete the bridge deck and barriers along the edges," NZTA said.
