Those heading to Northland for Easter are being warned to drive with caution.

Auckland and Northland Highway Manager Brett Gliddon says on-going construction on the Brynderwyn Hills and sections of State Highway One north of Whangarei will come to a halt over the break.

But, he says a number of temporary speed restrictions will still be in place.

"Just ask that they adhere to those temporary speed lim where they're in place and taking extra care where they're driving through sites that are in construction albeit no worl happening."
