Changes to Te Onewa Pā access
Between February 2025 and January 2026, we will be carrying out essential maintenance on the underside of SH1 Auckland Harbour Bridge which sits over the Pā at Stokes Point Reserve.
To keep the public safe there will be changes to the access of the Pā site.
Visit the NZTA website to find out how you might be affected.
