Community feedback is being sought for a proposed upgrade between Iles Rd and Rotorua Airport as part Eastern Corridor Stage Two improvements.
There will be key intersections proposed as part of the Eastern Corridor Stage Two improvements on State Highway 30 and Te Ngae Rd in Rotorua.
The proposed improvements include upgrades to intersections at Owhata Rd, Brent Rd, Wharenui Rd and Rotorua Airport, a three-metre-wide shared path and cycle lane the length of the corridor, new pedestrian crossings and bus stops, as well as four-laning.
Improvements will be constructed in phases, with some needed immediately and others to be built as development occurs in east Rotorua.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency portfolio manager Kathryn King said the effects of the significant development on the transport network need to be carefully planned for.
