Work will be carried out from 7am to 6pm, Monday 13 May to Friday 31 May 2019 (weather permitting).
This job has been prioritised and funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board​, via our Transport Capital fund, and will help to ease flooding and drainage issues due to new developments on the road, ease pressure on this part of Glendhu Scenic Reserve, and make it safer for schoolchildren who are dropped off at the end of the road to attend Bayview Primary School.

RIP Glenfield Rd Kauri :(

John Gillon from

What an appalling shame that these last 2 kauri on Glenfield Road that were planted as part of the road realignment have gone the same way as the previous 19 kauri 😢😠 RIP.
