Auckland Celebrates Completion of $2.4bn Motorway Upgrade with New Underpass

AUCKLAND: Auckland completed the construction of a motorway with a new underpass worth $2.4 billion that will connect the northern and western parts. 

While speaking to the locals, Transport Minister Michael Wood said, “The Western Ring Route will provide a second route through Auckland, supporting economic transformation as a major freight corridor to enable goods and services to move safely and steadily throughout New Zealand,” 

He further added, “The completion of the SH1 to SH18 underpass wraps up two decades of major infrastructure projects on Western Ring Route including the Waterview tunnel, SH16 Causeway Upgrade, and the Northern Corridor Improvements Project,” Wood said.

According to authorities, an effective, secure, up-to-date, and adaptable transportation system is essential to Auckland’s success, whether it involves the movement of commodities, commuters, students, or individuals visiting their loved ones and relatives.
