A section of Whanganui's Maria Place will be closed throughout most of June while a raised platform is built in St Hill St.
The closure affects the part of Maria Place from St Hill St to just before the Farmers carpark, which will remain open.
Whanganui District Council senior roading engineer Brent Holmes said the raised platform is part of the Te Tuaiwi Shared Pathway project that includes St Hill St.
"It's been designed to better link pedestrians, mobility users and cyclists by way of traffic calming from the CBD to the shared pathway and vice versa," he said.
"It is not an official zebra crossing and vehicles will still have the right of way."
