Road Closures on Ti Rakau
‼️ Latest update from Eastern Busway. ‼️
“Kia ora,
We’d like to let you know about upcoming work as part of the Eastern Busway project so that you’re informed ahead of time.
Changes will be in place on Tī Rākau Drive in both directions between Pakūranga Road and William Roberts Road from Friday 24 October to Saturday 27 December. Please see the attached map.
Important information
There will be one lane open in each direction on Ti Rākau Drive and the right turn from Tī Rākau Drive to the South Eastern Highway will be closed.
Motorists will be able to access the South Eastern Highway using Rā Hihi – flyover.
Please allow extra travel time during peak hours while everyone adjusts to the reduced lane layout.
A section of footpath will be closed between the South Eastern Highway and Tiraumea Drive, along with the pedestrian crossings at that location. Signs will guide people to the nearest pedestrian crossing by Mattson Road to cross Tī Rākau Drive. Your safety is our priority, please only use pedestrian crossings.
When it’s completed, the Eastern Busway will provide transport options for people to get to more places, more frequently. Thank you for your patience while the busway is built.

Kind regards

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
