Major track upgrades launched: Mangere Mountain
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.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
