When a new expressway opens, the old state highway needs to be converted into a local road – removing the state highway status. This process is known as ‘revocation’ and passes the ownership and maintenance of the road to the relevant local authority. In this case, Kāpiti Coast District Council.
The Wellington Transport Alliance (WTA) maintains and operates the state highway network and assets in the Greater Wellington region. WTA connects the Wellington region so you can get where you’re going safely and reliably.
As part of wider plans to improve public transport in the northwest, a new bus station at Westgate is being designed. The station will connect local bus services with WX1 express services to the city centre.
Plans for walking and cycling improvements throughout the Whakatipu Basin will make it safer and easier for locals and visitors to move around the region. The cycling and walking routes will improve connections to both existing and new trails and connect to key destinations throughout the Basin.
