Montage of Warkworth Road Signs

Great North Road, State Highway One, Twin Coast Discovery, Queen Street, Brown Road, Baxter Street, Elizabeth Street, Auckland, Neville Street.

In the 1860's a traveller would have found the Great North Road as a line cut through dense forest, rough, steep and devoid of bridges. In 1882 main-line coaches would traverse the rugged route from Puhoi over the Moirs Hill to Warkworth managing a creditable eight hour run.
