Look, congestion on this road is not unique to this road; it is an issue across Auckland. But particularly for the people that live on the North Shore, congestion on Lake Road is a significant factor.

Some of the solutions that have been raised because of the lack of funding really only address the symptoms but not the true root cause of this problem.
