The NZ Transport Agency is about to start another two projects to improve safety for motorists south of Warkworth and Helensville.
The Agency is building a new right hand turning bay from SH1 into Valerie Close, south of Warkworth. The shoulder will be widened and a new guardrail installed.
"The community has told us they're concerned about the safety of traffic heading south out of Warkworth and turning right into a popular winery. We've listened and hope this new turning bay will make this stretch of the state highway safer for everyone," says Brett Gliddon, the Transport Agency's Highway Manager for Auckland and Northland.
Work is due to start on the 23 November and is expected to be completed by 11 December.
There will be some single lane closures to allow the works to take place safely.
