Major track upgrades launched: Mangere Mountain

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

The track to Mangere Mountain's summit is getting a facelift.

It will be recreated with aggregate stone paths, basalt rock steps and rest areas with seating at key viewing areas.

A floating staircase will be built on the steeper northern descent from the south Auckland summit which is prone to erosion from foot traffic.

Work begins on May 17 and is expected to take five months to bring to fruition.

The goal is to preserve historic pa features and provide a safer, enhanced experience for pedestrians.

Also planned is a major redevelopment of the playground.

Inspired by the landscape, the design will reflect stories associated with the mountain and Maori culture.

A $1 million budget has been earmarked for the playground.

More details will be released later.
