    Advice for holiday-makers heading out of Auckland

    Advice for holiday-makers heading out of Auckland


    Highways both north and south of Auckland are backing up - and delays are expected all weekend.

    The closure of State Highway two through Ngatea is causing congestion - Warkworth and the motorway toward Takanini are just as bad.

    AA Spokesperson Barney Irvine says adjusting travel time will save motorists a lot of pain.

    He says it's important to plan your trip in advance, check the traffic and road conditions before you leave - and drive courteously.
