Three Mile Bush and Clark Road pedestrian-crossing upgrades

The Team from Whangarei District Council

We're restarting traffic calming works on Three Mile Bush Road and Clark Road during the July school holidays, continuing until works are complete in December 2024.

There wil be brief detours in place for minor-closures. There will also be several areas where parking will be restricted to allow two-way traffic flow. Work-sites may have temporary speed-limits in place.

Please watch out for workers and kids as you travel at a safe, reduced speed!
