Wharemauku Stream pathway resurfacing
We're renewing the gravel surface on the popular Wharemauku Stream path. Starting at Matatua Road, work will progress to Rimu and Tahi Roads over the coming weeks.
The Wharemauku Stream is an easy path for walkers and cyclists commuting between Paraparaumu Town Centre and Raumati Beach, and connects to the Expressway Shared Pathway. The number of people using the path has significantly increased over the last few years, and this work will mean there's a safe surface for different modes of transport and people with different accessibility needs.
The track's open to users throughout this work, but please take extra care and follow the instructions of signage as we will have heavy machinery on site.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
