Get ready for changes at SH18 Paul Matthews Road

North Shore drivers are advised to get ready for a big change to how they travel to Rosedale when the new Paul Matthews Road opens next weekend. The new road will shift to join the SH18 Caribbean Drive intersection overnight on Friday 11 December.

People are advised to plan their journeys as delays are expected during this busy time of the year. It is a significant change to how people move around the area, so they need to be patient while everyone adjusts.

The biggest change is that people must turn right much earlier on SH18 westbound to access Paul Matthews Road and into the Rosedale industrial area. The old intersection and right turn off the state highway will close permanently.

Lane restrictions on Upper Harbour Highway

Drivers are encouraged to look out for lane restrictions on Upper Harbour Highway underneath the SH1 Constellation Drive Bridge at the end of December.

Crews will be working day and night to widen the footpath underneath the motorway. The work will take place from 9pm Monday 28 to 12pm Thursday 31 December.

Please allow extra time for trips to the retail area on Constellation Drive in Mairangi Bay.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The project team will be taking a holiday break from Wednesday 23 December and starting work again on Wednesday 6 January. The project office and visitor hub at 10 Rothwell Avenue will be closed during this time.

From all of us on the project team, we wish you all a safe and festive holiday season.
