A segment of the stalled Te Mata Peak track could kill someone using it, a report has found.

Hastings District Council said an independent report had prompted it to take "urgent action" to remove the dangerous section of the track, located on the top 500 metres.

The report said that in its current state, the track, which Craggy Range Winery carved last year, could result in serious injury, or loss of life as a result of retaining wall collapse, falling rocks and slips.

The work to remove it would begin next week, at an estimated cost of between $50,000 and $60,000, the council said. It was expected to take up to a week to complete. Read more here
