Mt Wellington Interchange improvements - crossings not yet activated

Damian Light made this Official Information request to Auckland Transport

Response to this request is long overdue. By law Auckland Transport should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.

From: Damian Light

Dear Auckland Transport,

There has been a project underway to alter the SH1 motorway onramp at Mt Wellington (NOP1819-012b) which included the installation of two new light controlled pedestrian crossings.

It appeared that the majority of the work was completed in May/June 2021. However as of 26 April 2022 these crossings are not yet in operation. The related lights are inactive and the pedestrian crossing buttons do not function.

I would like to understand:
1) What was the original date for the commissioning for these crossings?
2) Has there been a delay to the commissioning for these crossings? If so, what was the cause of the delay? For clarity I would like the root cause and any contributing causes.
3) What is the new estimated date when these crossings will be commissioned?

Yours faithfully,

Damian Light
