SH20 Waterview Connection
The Waterview Connection project through Avondale, Mt Albert and Waterview is the vital last link in the Western Ring Route. Once completed, the Western Ring Route will create an alternative 48km motorway between Manukau and Albany by linking three state highways, the southwestern (SH20), the northwestern motorway (SH16) and the upper harbour drive (SH18).
The Waterview Connection project will extend from Maioro Street in Mt Roskill to the Northwestern Motorway (SH16) at Waterview by Great North Rd.
A brochure providing information on NZTA's preferred option to build the Waterview Connection is now available.

The project team is developing further design to respond to issues of community concerns such as open space replacement, urban design, noise, and tunnel construction. The NZTA board will consider this information before the end of the year and the subsequent process of engagement with the community and other stakeholders.
More information will be added to this site when it is available.
