Teardrop roundabout configuration to be reinstated
Following the recent traffic flow trial at the Landing Road Bridge in Whakatāne, the successful teardrop roundabout configuration is to be reinstated, as from 7 am on Friday, 9 December.
At yesterday’s Whakatāne District Council Projects and Services Committee meeting, Council elected members voted to reintroduce the modified roundabout layout “as soon as possible”, to reduce traffic congestion at the western entrance to the town during the busy summer holiday period.
The teardrop configuration was trialled to assess whether it would ease the additional traffic congestion expected during the three-month closure of the Peketahi Bridge at Tāneatua, which will see all SH2 traffic rerouted through Whakatāne from mid-February next year. It means only traffic crossing the Landing Road bridge from SH30 will be able to turn onto Landing Road.
