New lane layout for Esmonde Road/Akoranga Drive off-ramp
As part of ongoing
upgrade of the Esmonde Road Interchange, further changes to
the Akoranga Drive/Esmonde Road off-ramp will take place
overnight on Monday 31 October 2005. The interchange is
being upgraded as part of the construction of the Northern
Busway project that will provide an 8km dedicated two-lane
busway between Esmonde Road and Constellation Drive by the
end of 2007.
From the morning of Tuesday 1 November, the current westbound diversion to Akoranga Drive from the Esmonde Road off-ramp will be closed. A new, permanent single lane westbound diversion will open closer to the beginning of the Esmonde Road off-ramp.
This new off-ramp will not affect traffic travelling east towards Esmonde Road.
Transit New Zealand’s Northern Busway Project Director, Clive Fuhr, says motorists should ensure they are in the correct lanes when using the Akoranga Drive/Esmonde Road off-ramp. “Motorists heading west to Akoranga Drive will need to be in the left lane when using this exit,” he explains.
