Beach Haven Coastal Walk now open!
The Beach Haven Coastal Walk is now completely open! The upgraded tracks throughout Shepherds Park and Hellyers Creek are now finished (with some final points and tidy up to be completed in the new year).
You can now walk step-free from Cresta Ave through Shepherds Park, past the lookout, around Hellyers Creek Reserve, to the dip in Beach Haven Rd! And don't forget to detour to check out the boardwalk along the Shepherds Park water's edge.
The Kaipātiki Local Board members are very proud of what we've been able to achieve here, and the potential for additional connections in the future.
Thankyou to all of the council staff and contractors that have been involved in the different stages, and thankyou to everyone for your patience while work has been underway.
