    A stretch of highway that caused Kapiti commuters major disruption earlier this week, shouldn't cause problems today

    A stretch of highway that caused Kapiti commuters major disruption earlier this week, shouldn't cause problems today


    NZTA's expecting heavy holiday traffic heading out of the capital on State Highway One.

    There was concern a new road layout and chipseal would contribute to today's congestion.

    Wellington's transport system manager Mark Owen says the road surface at MacKays Crossing has settled down.

    He says it's been performing well for northbound traffic.
