On behalf of the entire PP2Ō project, I would like to wish you all the very best Christmas and New Year. I also want to thank everyone for all your kind messages of support over the past few months. They’re appreciated by all.
It’s been a big year on the project, but now the progress being made is really clear to see. The railway shift at Easter, the opening of Rāhui Road, the reopening of Old Hautere Road and laying the last beam on the Ōtaki River Bridge, are all major milestones reached for the project this year.
Next year, there are a lot more challenges coming up. January will start with the traffic switch to the new local arterial road (LAR) and by the end of the year we hope to have completed many of the bridges across the project.
With more than 17,000 vehicles per day expected to travel through Ōtaki during the holiday period, I also want to urge people to drive safely over the Christmas break and watch out for other road users.
