Police are calling for motorists' dashcam footage to help find a missing Waitākere woman in West Auckland who may be confused or disorientated.

Michelle Simpson was last seen walking along Wairere Rd, between Caton and Gregory Rds, about 11.30am yesterday.

Simpson, 50, is about 152cm tall and has short brown hair. She may also be "confused or disorientated", Sergeant David Orr said.

Police have been searching Waitākere since yesterday afternoon without luck.

They are now asking all local drivers to check their dashcam footage from between the hours of 11am and 2pm yesterday if they drove along or near Wairere, Caton, Gregory or Duffy Rds.

"We are also asking all residents in the neighbourhood to please review your security footage to see if [Simpson] has entered your property and double check your backyards [and] sheds," Orr said.

Anyone with information is asked to call 111.
