Waka Kotahi NZTA said the right turn ban is an interim solution to improve safety at the intersection while a roundabout is designed, consented and built.
There were 39 crashes at the intersection, including one serious crash and at least three fatal crashes, between 2010 and 2020, according to Waka Kotahi data.
Those wanting to turn right can instead detour down Old Railway Rd to use the roundabout at the intersection of SH16 and Old North Rd.
The local MP and local board chair were both critical of Waka Kotahi for failing to build the roundabout, which is still in its design phase.

With overseas tourists set to return to NZ shortly, we're looking at doing a light-hearted piece on the odd questions Kiwis have been asked about NZ. You may have seen the post doing the rounds on social media at the moment asking whether English is spoken here and suggesting NZ is a state of Australia (see below). Have you ever been asked anything surprising about NZ? Feel free to message me or comment below. Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in the article. Thanks very much for your help and happy travels.

This posting is a call for support, Alzheimers Northland urgently needs donations to keep their services going. In their 30th year of providing life-changing services to Northlanders living with dementia, they should be celebrating but instead we are fighting to stay afloat. As a current board member and as a daughter of 2 wonderful parents who have both suffered from the affliction of dementia, I post this plea for support with a heart full of hope that it will resonate with someone who understands and is able to help.
Please open the link below to discover the wonderful things that the Alzheimers Northland society does and how you can help.

Firefighters are also on high alert, with helicopters at the ready, in case the wind causes flare-ups in one of three fires still burning in Kaipara and the Far North. This summer has been one of the worst fire seasons in decades, with nearly 3000 hectares burnt by four major fires, as well as numerous smaller vegetation fires.
Since 1999, our residents and team members have raised more than $5 million for charities across New Zealand and Australia.
