Call for action over deadly Upper Hutt road

Reporter Community News

It’s a disgrace that nearly 50 people have died on a 20-kilometre stretch of State Highway 2 in Upper Hutt, the city’s mayor says.
Wayne Guppy wants something done about the road, on which 48 people have died since 1987.
Do you use the road and is it as dangerous as the mayor claims?
Remutaka MP Chris Hipkins​ said he’d long had concerns over the road and believes road should be two lanes in either direction.
