Background

Auckland City is working with Transit New Zealand (Transit) to progress the completion of the strategic road network, particularly the western ring route.

The western ring route means completing state highways 16, 18 and 20, providing a vital alternative to State Highway 1, between Albany and Manukau City.

Completing the western ring route and will reduce traffic through the central motorway network and on local roads, improve access to the motorway network for Auckland's western suburbs and mean quicker travel across the region.

Transit is currently working on a number of major projects to complete the western ring route. Initiatives and timing information can be viewed on the Transit website.
