Seasonal road closures

Many roads and tracks are closed to vehicle traffic each year. These tracks are closed to vehicles for visitor safety, to maintain water quality and prevent erosion during the wetter months as rain and snow softens the tracks, making them vulnerable to damage.

Seasonal road closures generally operate from the long weekend in June through to the end of October, but may be extended due to seasonal conditions.

2013 Seasonal road closures

Seasonal road closures for 2013 will commence Thursday 13 June 2013 (the Thursday after the Queen's Birthday long weekend in June).

Some tracks are subject to early closures - 1 May 2013 - and some tracks extend past the general closure period up until the end of November.
