Waka Kotahi is reminding people travelling through the SH30/33 Te Ngae Junction that new traffic management will be in place from Monday 22 May so that the next stage of roundabout construction can begin.
People travelling through the intersection should expect significant delays – up to 30 minutes at peak times – and plan their journey to take this into account.
Traffic lights will be operating at the intersection 24 hours a day, and our team will monitor delays and queues.
This layout is expected be in place for four months, weather and ground conditions permitting.
Those traveling in light vehicles on SH33 can use Hamurana Road/SH36/SH5 to bypass the worksite, or use SH36 to/from Tauranga.
There is no detour for heavy vehicles or those travelling to/from SH30 east.
Please drive with care as you adjust to the new road layout. Follow the speed limit, share the road safely and be aware of traffic in and out of Rangiteaorere Road and local driveways.
