Show Notes

The Government has unveiled a new Northern Expressway that goes over Northland's Brynderwyn Hills rather than around.

It's released its planned route for Northern Expressway taking it from Warkworth east of State Highway one, over the hills to the east of the current route,  then through Whangarei.

This comes instead of a proposed bypass to the west.

Northland Regional Council Transport Committee Chair Joe Carr has voiced support for this move. 

"People aren't secure in making decisions to do with holidaying and investing in Northland, so it's pretty serious stuff."
