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.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
