Great news for the local community.

We are happy to share that the Ōtaki to North of Levin (Ō2NL) expressway is officially moving forward with key safety features reinstated!

Thanks to the unwavering advocacy from our community, the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi Board has confirmed the inclusion of:

👉 A grade-separated interchange at Tararua Road in Levin
👉 A southbound onramp at Taylors Road, connecting to the Peka Peka to Ōtaki expressway
👉 A vehicle overbridge at Manakau Heights, ensuring safe access for residents across the new highway

Bernie Wanden Horowhenua Mayor has expressed gratitude, stating, "This is a significant and very welcome moment for Horowhenua. It reflects the strength of our community’s collective voice and the effectiveness of Council’s long-standing advocacy."

Construction is set to begin later this year, marking a major step forward for our region's connectivity and safety.

Let's celebrate this community victory together! 🙌
