Link road decision delay

The hearing commissioners on the Matakana link road have been given extra time to reach their conclusions. The commissioners initially had 15 days from the end of the hearing in late March to make a decision, but this has been extended to May 14.

The Notice of Requirement for the designation and associated resource consents put forward by Auckland Transport (AT) was for two lanes in Stage 1 (opening in late 2021) and four lanes in Stage 2 (post-2036).
