O Mahurangi Penlink[1] (State Highway 19), is a 7-kilometre-long (4.3-mile),[2] two-lane future state highway.[3][4] Construction began in late 2022[5] and is expected to conclude in late 2026.[5] Once completed the new state highway will create a more direct and quicker route between the Whangaparaoa Peninsula and central Auckland in New Zealand.
The road is set to provide a second access route off the Whangaparaoa Peninsula, and is claimed by some[citation needed] to be needed to unlock large amounts of commercial land, contribute up to $173 million to GDP during its construction, and create employment estimated at more than 5000 jobs.
