Southbound offramp from SH1 to Peka Peka - temporary closure
The southbound offramp at Peka Peka connecting State Highway 1 to Waikanae will close on two days in mid-November for work to join the new expressway to the old. Vehicles heading south to
the town or to Peka Peka will use the Waikanae interchange at Te Moana Road on those days.
The most likely closure is Tuesday 15 November day and night, reopening late afternoon Wednesday 16 November. Please note, dates may change at short notice due to weather or other factors affecting the work.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
