The proposed Manawatū Regional Freight Ring Road aims to make freight movement safer and easier around our city — by reducing heavy traffic on our city roads and improving connections between our key industrial areas and State Highways.
This is your best chance to influence the potential routes
Over the next few weeks, PNCC holding community expo sessions across the city where people can drop in, view maps of the proposed routes, provide feedback, and choose their preferred route.
These sessions are part of the project’s Indicative Business Case, which will help narrow down a long list of potential routes to a shortlist – and eventually a preferred route. Once the shortlist is confirmed, there won’t be another opportunity to comment on the full set of routes — so please make sure your voice is heard now.
The five sections that will make up the ring road – each section has several potential route options – so if you live near these areas, it’s important you come to the expo sessions to review the route and vote for your preferred options!
