Mount Maunganui's Links Ave reopens after two years with traffic restrictions reducing daily vehicle movements.

Mount Maunganui's Links Ave reopened after two years of closure due to high traffic volumes near schools. The street's access times changed, reducing daily vehicle movements from 7,500 to 3,500. The current system, which permits residents, visitors, and businesses to use the street during restricted hours, will be evaluated in December for possible modifications in late 2024 or early 2025. Community members, such as Tauranga City AFC Chairman Brendon McHugh, express satisfaction as it addresses the street's thoroughfare issue and benefits isolated older residents.
