Aerial photos showing the first intersection upon entering Wainuiomata, where Main Road meets Fitzherbert Road. Over time, the latter portion of Main Road was later renamed Wainuiomata Road, and a roundabout was added. This evolution is depicted in photos from 1941, 1954, 1969, and 1988, courtesy of the Wainuiomata Museum.
