Work started on River Trail
Work has begun on stabilising the banks of Te Awa Kairangi/Hutt River at Heretaunga, near the Royal Wellington Golf Club.
The work is part of a bigger flood protection project, estimated to be around $17.5 million.
Erosion from severe weather in July has undermined the riverbank and adjacent Hutt River Trail, taking out up to 20 metres of the bank. The trail has been severely damaged, making it too dangerous to use near the club. It has been closed until the repairs, estimated at $1.95 million, are completed.
Greater Wellington Cr Roz Connelly says the speed of the response reflects how much use the popular walkway gets.
"It is very good news and it reflects how much loved it is and how much use it gets, so we have got on to it quickly."
