New walking and biking paths for Miramar cutting
Work to develop new walking and biking paths along the Maupuia side of Miramar Avenue, between Shelly Bay Road and Tauhinu Road, will get underway in early May.
With the project on Cobham Drive now complete, the same Downer crew will make a start on construction through the Miramar cutting.
The new paths will make it safer and easier to walk and cycle in this busy area and provide a connection from the Cobham Drive end of Miramar Avenue.
From Shelly Bay Road there will be a separate 2m-wide footpath and 3m-wide two-way bike path through the Miramar cutting. The two paths will merge into a 5m-wide shared path near Maupuia Road that continues to Z Energy, to create a slow zone towards the shopping area.
Deputy Mayor and Portfolio Leader for Walking and Cycling Sarah Free says the project is an important part of Wellington City Council’s network delivered as part of the Urban Cycleways Programme, and will provide another key connection in the bike route around the harbour from the east.
