Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency is making changes to the existing state highway network and providing people with important information about using the wider transport network to help support safe and efficient journeys to and from Te Upoko o te Ika a Maui (Wellington).
The Wellington Network Operational Readiness (WNOR) programme is in the construction phase. Additional managed motorway technology is now being installed to help people navigate the roads more easily and keep them informed of any incidents or crashes on the road ahead.
The work includes the rollout of new electronic signage to advise of incidents or estimated journey times and new CCTV to ensure that the motorway is operating safely and efficiently.
Check out current road conditions, journey times and public transport options via the Waka Kotahi Journey Planner.
