DIRECTIONS
VISIT MOTAT BY CAR
Located just 10 minutes drive from the Auckland CBD via the North Western Motorway, MOTAT is easy to find when you take the St Lukes Road off-ramp, Exit 6. We recommend planning your journey with Google Maps:
MOTAT Aviation Hall - 98 Motions Road, Western Springs
MOTAT Great North Road - 805 Great North Road, Western Springs
VISIT MOTAT BY BIKE
Bike racks are provided at both sites.
At MOTAT Great North Road, they are located at the entry of Stadium Road, at Motions Road they are at the entrance to the Aviation Hall. These are Locky Docks which require a transport card such as an AT Hop Card to secure your bike, but you do not need to bring your own lock thanks to the technology in these racks. These are free but cannot be used without a transport card. See the video below on how to use Locky Docks.
