West Auckland residents could net new cycle ways in Henderson
Auckland Transport has announced new cycle routes proposed for West Auckland's Henderson.
Community feedback has helped AT identify eight bike routes which will form the backbone of the proposed new Henderson cycle network.
More than 500 submissions were made, with 275 new routes pinpointed, aimed at boosting safety for cyclists.
Once the proposed new network is confirmed, AT will look at ways to connect routes to surrounding areas.
The goal is to develop a comprehensive network which can be built over time, as funding becomes available.
“Cycling is a better option for the environment and makes up an essential part of our city’s shift towards a low-carbon transport system,” said Cliff Wilton, Auckland Transport's sustainable mobility manager.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
