The July project update for the Longswamp section of the Waikato Expressway highlights progress in the past three months – including at the Whangamarino Road overbridge.

This week the beams were hoisted into place on the western side of the bridge (pictured above) which will connect communities on each side of the expressway when it opens to traffic later this year.

Traffic has been switching on to the new south-bound lanes in recent months – and this creates room for construction of the north-bound lanes. All good signs of progress as the project remains on track to be completed in mid-2019.
