Auckland Transport has been working on a $10 million extension to Medallion Drive in Albany since June 2020.
The project was expected to be complete by mid-2021, however it is now expected to open in early April, an Auckland Transport spokeswoman confirmed.
Locals on social media recently questioned why the Medallion Drive link road had not yet opened, as it had looked completed for several weeks, with minimal activity from contractors.

Auckland Transport have labelled this person's actions as "dangerous".
