Final improvements at a Whangarei intersection have formally opened
8 October 2020
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency has carried out six projects on State Highway 1 through the region.
The Tarewa Road intersection has new traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing, and a shared path's been finished under Otaika Bridge.
It's hoped they'll improve connections between the city centre, Whangarei Hospital and Northland Polytech.
Associate Transport Minister Shane Jones kicked off the ceremony - and says it'll make the intersection safer for all road users.
