Poll: Hill Street: Total Gridlock
Drone footage from Labour Weekend shows the extent of the mess that is Hill Street in Warkworth. www.stuff.co.nz...
To address congestion, AT and NZTA have announced an interim three month trial to commence from November 7.
This trial will involve the banning of turning right onto Elizabeth Street in the hope to reduce one set of traffic movements and help vehicles move easily through the intersection.
Changes will include using half a dozen orange 'safe-hit' flexible posts and removing the giveway from Sandspit Road adjacent to Elizabeth Street.
Do you think this will help?
