State Highway 22 (SH 22) is a New Zealand State Highway just south of Auckland. It connects the town of Pukekohe to the Auckland Southern Motorway.

Route

The route begins at Exit 461 on SH 1 near Drury and travels in a general south-west direction towards Pukekohe. The highway officially terminates where SH 22 meets the northern intersection with Adams Drive. From there the road changes to Edinburgh Street and continues into Pukekohe town centre.

History

SH 22 used to cover a much longer route, via Tuakau, all the way to meet with SH 23 (which runs from Hamilton to Raglan). This section was revoked in the 1990s although much of the original route still holds the name "Highway 22".
