Update on the Archers Rd/Coronation Rd intersection
Preliminary work at the Archers Rd/Coronation Rd intersection has finished and the new roundabout will be built in either early-March or during the April school holidays (dates to be confirmed). When that happens, the intersection will be closed for up to 8 days for construction.
In the meantime, you may have noticed that roundabout signs have been installed at the intersection, and that the Stop sign at the top of Archers Rd has been changed to a Give Way sign.
This is because a painted roundabout will be installed tonight (weather permitting), similar to what we've had at the Ocean View Rd/Northcote Rd intersection recently. This is a temporary measure until the real roundabout is built. Please treat it like a real roundabout.
NOTE: Photo taken before the new roundabout signs were installed.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
