New pier debuts in Old Mangere Bridge Replacement

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

The first concrete pier to support the Old Māngere Bridge Replacement has emerged in the Manukau Harbour.

The V shaped pillar is now visible above the cofferdam which created a water-free working environment for construction crew.

It paves the way for a new bridge to restore walking, cycling and fishing connections to Mangere Bridge and Onehunga.


Earmarked for completion in 2022, the structure will boost clearance underneath and space between the piers for waka, canoes and small watercrafts to sail into Mangere Inlet.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

How is this possible?
