Harbour Bridge Shared Path and SeaPath

John Gillon from

Big news for our area today as the Government has announced an investment of $360 million for the Auckland Harbour Bridge Shared Path and SeaPath, with construction set to begin in 2021.
While these aren't Auckland Council projects, the Kaipatiki Local Board has been working closely with NZTA on areas where the proposed route touches our local parks and pathways, such as exploring options for SkyPath landing at Te Onewa/Stokes Pt Reserve, options for integrating SeaPath into Sulphur Beach Reserve, and connecting SeaPath into Tuff Crater Reserve/Heath Reserve, to form a recreational loop.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
