Eastern Busway Construction Update

Eastern Busway Construction Update

May 2024

Completion of a big project like the busway creates change and some disruption. Eastern Busway are keen to be good neighbours while the work is in progress and to keep us updated so you know what to expect.

A section of Reeves Road closed from 18 March

A section of Reeves Road in Pakūranga closed on 18 March for two years while the flyover is built overhead. The closure is in place from Tī Rākau Drive to the William Roberts Road intersection. 

Drivers are encouraged to use alternative routes such as Gossamer Drive, Pakūranga Road, or the new William Roberts Road link shown in the map below. 

Looking towards Botany

A dedicated haul road has been constructed for site trucks between Riverhills Park and the Tī Rākau Drive Bridge. A retaining wall and piling foundations are being built for the busway bridge over the Tāmaki River.
