NZTA/Waka Kotahi is encouraging drivers in the lower North and Upper South Island heading away for a long Easter weekend to take some simple steps to ensure they get where they’re going safely.
Travel along State Highway 2 in the Hutt Valley is about to be safer with the construction of safety improvements at two critical intersections with Hebden Crescent.

11 March update: With one more week of night closures planned for State Highway 2 Remutaka Hill, drivers wanting to join escorted crossings are asked to make their bookings as quickly as possible.
