Morning peak traffic should be smooth sailing from now on as roundabout metering at the State Highway 2 Elizabeth St roundabout begins this Thursday.
The NZ Transport Agency will start stop go traffic lights to help improve the southbound traffic flow on Takitimu Drive in the morning peak.
From 7am Thursday traffic lights will be operating on State Highway 2 Takitimu Drive northbound off-ramp to the Elizabeth St roundabout.
The traffic lights will have orange and red lights but no green.
