New road layout at Haywards Interchange
On Saturday 15th April, we’ll be switching traffic onto the new Haywards Interchange. If you’re travelling along State Highway 2 or State Highway 58, this will change how you move through the area.
For State Highway 2 traffic, the main change you’ll notice is there will be no more traffic signals. If you’re wanting to get onto or off State Highway 58, you’ll use the new elevated roundabout. There will be plenty of signage to guide you, and a lower speed limit in place to allow everyone to get used to the new layout.
For more information, plus a diagram and quick animation guide, please click here or call the project team on 0800 007 425.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
