Auckland’s train services will be suspended for almost 100 days between Christmas 2024 and January 2026 as improvements are made to the rail network ahead of the City Rail Link project’s completion. Aucklanders would face up to 96 days without an operational train service across those 13 months, with closures centred around holidays, weekends and evenings.
The network will be closed from December 27 2024 until January 27 2025. As a contingency, the six days after January 27 could see the network partially closed. A full closure of two weeks would occur over the Easter break. The network would be closed during public holiday weekends in May and June 2025. It would be partially closed for five weekends between July and September and closed over Labour weekend. Four further weeks had been identified for partial closure. The second long full closure would begin on Boxing Day, 2025, and finish on January 26, 2026. Read more below.
