IMPROVING ACCESS TO, FROM EAST
Access to Taupo from the east will be greatly improved when the last six and a half miles of unsealed, hilly road on the Taupo-Napier highway is replaced with a new highspeed section due for opening within a few months.

Engineers have encountered difficulties with particularly tough rock and this has delayed progress.
