Project overview

Upgrading the existing Matakana Road corridor between the Hill Street intersection and the northern rural urban boundary to an urban arterial corridor with walking and cycling facilities. This upgrade will be integrated with the Hill Street improvements works to create a well-connected network. 

The proposed work includes:  

  • Upgrading Matakana Road to an urban arterial cross section with cycle lanes and footpaths.  
  • Tie-ins with existing roads, localised widening around the existing intersections to accommodate new intersection forms. 
  • New or upgraded stormwater management systems, bridges and culverts (where applicable).  
  • Batter slopes to enable widening of the corridor, and associated cut and fill earthworks. 
  • Vegetation removal along the existing road corridor.  
  • Other construction related activities required outside the permanent corridor including the re-grade of driveways, construction traffic manoeuvring and construction laydown areas.

Project status and anticipated construction timeframes

This project is currently in the appeal period. Submitters had 15 working days in which they could appeal to the Environment Court, against the whole or any part of the decision from AT. Appeals are under Section 174 of the Resource Management Act 1991.  

 

During this process AT works together with appellants to come to a resolution.  If both parties can't resolve the appeal independently, the Environment Court can appoint a mediator to facilitate the conversation. If a resolution can't be reached through court assisted mediation, then an Environment Court hearing will take place, and the Environment Court will issue a decision on the outcome.

There is currently no funding for detailed design or construction of this project. We anticipate the project will be delivered sometime within the next 30 years in line with Auckland Council’s land release strategy.
