Victoria Park Tunnel: information sessions

From City Scene, published on 22 November, 2009.

As work on the NZ Transport Agency's Victoria Park Tunnel project gets under way, a second round of community drop-in sessions will be held later this month.

The tunnel project will see three northbound lanes under Victoria Park, and the existing viaduct converted to four southbound lanes. Improvements will also be made to SH1 through St Marys Bay.

Victoria Park Tunnel will provide people with faster and more reliable travel between the south and north of the city.

To inform the public of what is going on there will be three drop-in sessions, where interested parties can get an overview of the project progress and programme.

The sessions will be held at the Victoria Park Tunnel office in 100 Beaumont Street, Auckland, as follows:

Saturday, 28 November, one session from 11am to 2pm
Monday, 30 November, two sessions from noon to 2pm and 5pm to 7pm.
