We are working to make it easier and safer for you to access the intersection of Wintere Road and Hoteo Avenue in Papatoetoe.
What we are doing
We are working to make it easier and safer for you to access the intersection of Wintere Road and Hoteo Avenue in Papatoetoe. The proposed roundabout will help slow vehicles and make it clearer and safer for people to move through the intersection, whether you are walking, cycling, driving, living nearby, working or visiting the area.
What we are proposing
We are proposing the following safety upgrades at the Wintere Road and Hoteo Avenue intersection:
Install a roundabout with a non-mountable central island and a mountable apron to help slow traffic and support safer crossing and turning movements from Wintere Road.
Install new refuge crossing facilities on Wintere Road south and Hoteo Avenue, including directional and warning tactile pavers where required.
Reconstruct footpaths, realign kerbs and berms, and update road markings and signs to support the new layout.
Install new broken yellow lines (No Stopping At All Times) to support the roundabout layout. As a result, 9 parking spaceswill be removed. This includes the following changes:
Remove 2 parking spaces outside 50-52 Hoteo Avenue on the Hoteo Avenue west approach.
Remove 2 parking spaces outside 52 Hoteo Avenue on the Wintere Road north approach.
Remove 4 parking spaces outside 56 Hoteo Avenue on the Wintere Road north approach.
Remove 1 parking space outside 31A Wintere Road on the Wintere Road south approach.
You can view the proposed layout in the attached plan.
How this will benefit your neighbourhood
These improvements will help make the intersection safer and more predictable for everyone using the area. Key benefits include:
Safer and easier turning manoeuvres at the intersection.
Safer crossing environment for people walking through the area.
A clearer, more visible road layout.
Improved visibility and lower speed environment, enhance safety for all road users.
Why we are doing this
Improving safety
Seven crashes were reported between 2021 and 2025, including two serious-injury crashes and two minor-injury crashes.
A further minor-injury crash was reported in 2026.
Making the intersection safer for everyone
Our investigation found that most crashes at this location involved vehicles turning from or crossing Wintere Road and not stopping for traffic travelling along Hoteo Avenue. This shows there is a safety issue with turning and crossing movements at the intersection, which are known to carry a higher risk of more serious crashes.
The proposed improvements will reduce crash risk and make the area safer, more accessible and better connected.
