CONSTRUCTION UPDATE
We are proceeding to construction of the Godley-Titirangi Road intersection.
What you need to know
Where | Godley Road and Titirangi Road intersection |
When | Monday, 31 August to Friday, 30 October 2026 |
Hours of work | Monday – Friday Day Shift: 7am – 7pm Night Shift: 9pm – 6am Traffic management will be in place during this time with Stop/Go signs. |
What we’ll be doing | - Installing traffic lights to improve safety at this high-crash intersection.
- These lights will control the traffic going straight along Titirangi Road, traffic turning right from Godley Road, and provide a crossing for people to cross the road.
- The lights will be phased, i.e. on a scheduled timer. However, during busy times, this pattern can change to give priority to the road with heavier traffic, helping to ease congestion.
- Adding a new zebra crossing on the left-turn slip lane from Godley Road to Titirangi Road, which will be free-flowing, but drivers must stop when people are crossing.
- Widening the footpath to give people with prams and mobility needs more space.
- Installing new/reshaping existing traffic islands to support the intersection layout of traffic signals.
- Resealing the existing pavement at the intersection. This makes it more durable, extends its lifespan and prevents the need for frequent repairs and maintenance.
- Installing new anti-skid surfacing on Godley Road approach, heading towards the new pedestrian crossing.
|
Duration | Approximately 8-9 weeks (weather dependent) |
Why | - New traffic lights and crossing will reduce crashes and near misses, making the area safer for all road users.
- Ease congestion and improve access by removing parking spaces that block sightlines.
- Supports community connections – Shows a commitment to the safety of the entire school community and nearby residents.

Where we’ll be working
Before the work starts, digital signs will be set up along the route and near the town centre to inform the community about the works happening.
We appreciate your patience during this work.
The Work We’ll Be Doing - Traffic management & detours
We’ll be working for approximately 2 months starting Monday, 31 August and finishing by end of October.
We’ll be working day and night shifts on weekdays to finish this work on time for the Titirangi community.
We’ll try to start the work on time but factors outside our control, such as weather could mean a delayed timeline. If the delay is significant, we’ll notify you and update this webpage regularly.
Traffic Delays: Especially during peak times. Take care while driving, walking, or cycling in the area, especially if you live near the area.
Traffic Management Plans: Will be in place from 31 August, so please allow extra travel time. Follow all traffic signs, signals, and directions for safety.
Bus Services: Bus stops #5217 and #5234 will remain open and unaffected during construction.
At times there will be limited footpath access at the intersection.
Driveway and vehicle access to properties near the work site will be restricted, while work takes place. We will personally liaise with effected businesses to minimise any disruption.
As part of this work, our road maintenance team will reseal and install anti-skid surfacing to avoid slips and accidents on Godley Road. This makes it more durable, extends its lifespan and prevents the need for frequent repairs and maintenance.

About the project
We’re improving safety near Green Bay Schools and at the Godley Road/Titirangi Road intersection. This will make walking, cycling and driving safer and easier, so everyone gets where they need to and home safely.
We will install new traffic lights at the intersection of Godley Road and Titirangi Road, which is a high-risk area for crashes.
We’ve worked closely with Green Bay Schools to make safety improvement outside both the Primary and High School, which includes upgrading the crossings. These changes will slow down traffic, improve visibility, and reduce crashes in this busy area.
Together, these projects will make it easier and safer for everyone to walk, cross, and travel around your neighbourhood.
Growing communities means busier roads- so we need to improve crossing facilities and make travelling locally safer for everyone!
The changes we're making in 2026:
Safety improvements near Green Bay Schools
- New crossing islands outside Green Bay High School so children have a safe waiting area in the middle of the road.
- Relocated crossing outside Green Bay Primary School (further east) with the existing indented parking removed for smooth traffic flow.
- Gentle speed cushions with side/central island along Godley Road between La Rosa Street and Stottholm Road to slow down drivers.
- New bus shelter near Green Bay High School for students and other bus users.
- Extended no-parking (broken yellow lines) at Stottholm Rd/Godley Rd and Castleford St/Godley Rd to improve traffic flow.
- New traffic islands near driveways to improve visibility for drivers and people on foot.
- To make space for these improvements, we need to reallocate road space and remove six parking spaces (one on Stottholm Rd, one on Castleford St, 4 on Godley Rd).

Benefits to your community
- Safe crossing facilities make it easier and stress-free for you, our tamariki and our community to move about your neighbourhood with confidence.
- It offers better connections to parks, public transport and other local amenities.
- Improves visibility by ensuring children crossing Godley Road can be easily seen by drivers.
- New traffic lights and crossing will reduce crashes and near misses, making the area safer for all road users.
- Ease congestion and improve access by removing parking spaces that block sightlines.
- Supports community connections – Shows a commitment to the safety of the entire school community and nearby residents.
