Kind reminder: NIGHT TIME CLOSURES OF ROYAL RD BRIDGE OVER SH16
Hello fellow neighbours
Just a friendly reminder
Forward from NZTA:
Planned night-time closures of the Royal Rd Bridge over State Highway 16 will occur most nights during a four week period from Mon 20 May, with local detours in place. The closures will take place between 8pm and 5am on most nights from Sunday to Thursday each week. These works will be weather dependent and may be cancelled or postponed at short notice. Please note that the motorway on-ramp and off-ramp will both remain open, unless a SH16 full motorway closure is also required.
The new bridge at Royal Rd has greater height clearance over the motorway than the one it replaced. The closures are to allow the road on the eastern side and the on-ramp to the motorway to be built up to the same height as the bridge. These construction works are a part of the SH16 Lincoln to Westgate project which will improve the Northwestern Mwy and support expected growth in the western suburbs and increased traffic using the Western Ring Route.

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
