A Dunedin City Council spokesman said today that the road would be shut between Marne and Doon Sts from Monday, October 10 to Thursday, October 14 at all hours.
This was necessary for the removal of a macrocarpa and large rock at the top of the cliff, which required heavy machinery and room to operate.
A detour would be in place via Doon St with signage in Portsmouth Dr and Luss Rd.
The Otago Regional Council said the Route 18 (Portobello) bus would follow this detour.
Street lighting and other infrastructure would be repaired at the same time.
Access to the shared path/cycleway would be maintained throughout the period, although there would be times when cyclists and pedestrians would be stopped when certain work was being undertaken, including the removal of tree branches.
