With only days to go before the opening of the Hamilton section of the Waikato Expressway, Waka Kotahi/NZTA has released a video of the latest and final aerial flyover.
Starting in the north at the Lake Road junction with the Ngāruawāhia section the drone footage runs south. following the new State Highway 1 route to the east of Hamilton.
Finally, it shows Tamahere’s spaghetti junction before finishing at the existing Tamahere interchange at Airport Rd/SH21.
The 22km Hamilton expressway section is due to open on Tuesday, July 12 in a ceremony attended by Kingi Tuheitia and Transport Minister Michael Wood.
