Waterview Connection Open day[edit]

If anyone is interested, there's an open day on 13 Oct 2013. The walk is free but you need to book yourself for a slot in the tour. Booking Page. Linnah (talk) 03:48, 29 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This will complete the Western Ring Route - really?[edit]

In the article is: "The link will be the last section of SH20, and will complete the Western Ring Route."

This is not true, am I right? What about the piece connecting the easternmost end of the SH18 motorway with SH1, which is currently a regular road with traffic lights? I thought the Western Ring Route was not complete until it was motorway the whole way. Nzseries1 (talk) 21:47, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed this as I don't believe it's true. I'm happy to have it put back with references if I'm wrong. Nzseries1 (talk) 02:47, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you ask a question during the morning (NZ time), you really should wait much more than 5 hours for an answer. Some folks work and can't access Wikipedia during the day. I spotted your question just before heading out for lunch and an afternoon's outing and didn't get home till 5.00. Akld guy (talk) 05:38, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I did a bit of investigation during those five hours to further confirm what I thought, figuring that if there was anything that I missed people could add it back. Nzseries1 (talk) 02:31, 30 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The link will in fact complete the Western Ring Route, as stated in the reference attached to that paragraph. Akld guy (talk) 00:17, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Waterview connection WILL complete the Western Ring Route, just because it will still not be all motorway does not make it incomplete. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 03:06, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Converting from 'Future infrastructure' article/infobox[edit]

Now that the Waterview Connection is open, this article needs to be updated to suit. I guess the 'Future Infrastructure' Infobox should be replaced with a 'tunnel' infobox. With the peripheral updates just described in the article.

Would it also make sense for this article to just be about the tunnel, with the overall 'Waterview Connection' project a sub-section/history? — Preceding unsigned comment added by RadishSlice (talk • contribs) 00:16, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
