Eastern Busway Construction Update
MAY 2026
Pakuranga Road improvements
Work is underway to improve traffic flow at the Pakuranga Road and Ra Hihi (Reeves Road) flyover intersection. This follows engagement with elected members and neighbouring stakeholders, supported by detailed technical assessments.
The project team will be undertaking the following works to enhance safety and efficiency in the area:
- New Traffic Lane: Construction of a third traffic lane along Pakuranga Road, connecting the intersections of Ti Rakau Drive and the Ra Hihi flyover.
- Intersection Upgrades: The eastbound curved intersection island (heading towards Howick) will be smoothed and reduced in size to improve traffic movement.
- Improved Cycling Infrastructure: A new bi-directional cycle lane will be created on the Pakuranga Plaza side of the road, running between the Ti Rakau Drive / Pakuranga Road intersection and the Ra Hihi flyover intersection.
