Do you approve of this roundabout-to-traffic-light switch?
A pinch-point roundabout in Hillcrest, Hamilton, is being replaced with traffic lights in a bid to improve traffic flow.
It's the intersection of State Highway 1C Cobham Drive and Cambridge Road and work will start on January 4 2023.
It's expected to take about six months, Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency said.
“The current roundabout is a pinch point for Hamilton, particularly for people travelling between the central city and Cambridge, and with increasing traffic volumes and flows, it is no longer fit for purpose,” regional manager for infrastructure delivery Jo Wilton said.

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval ‘hospital’, without the stress of the bubonic plague.
The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
