From January to April 2025, we will be working to improve SH16 The Strand, Stanley St and Gladstone Rd.

We’ll be working overnight and during the weekend to improve these roads and make it safer and easier for people living, working, and travelling around this area.

SH16 is a busy road for Aucklanders, and we have chosen to work over the summer when traffic volumes are lower than normal. More stable summer weather reduces delays so our teams can finish this work quickly and efficiently.
Follow the link for more information on what we are doing and to stay up to date.
