We are delighted to be one step closer to having a safe and accessible shared path as work begins on stage 4 of Te Ara Ki Uta Ki Tai – the Glen Innes to Tāmaki Drive shared path.
Jointly funded by the Government and Auckland Council, the Glen Innes to Tāmaki Dr shared path – Te Ara Ki Uta Ki Tai (the path of land and sea) is a 7km path that connects Glen Innes, Meadowbank, Kohimarama with the city centre via Ōrākei Basin, Hobson Bay and Tāmaki Drive.
Auckland Deputy Mayor Desley Simpson, Minister for Auckland Simeon Brown, Ōrākei Local Board Chairperson Scott Milne and Deputy Chair Sarah Powrie, and Auckland Transport Board Chair Richard Leggat along with invited guests, gathered in Ōrākei on Friday 2 May to turn the first sod on the fourth section.
This 870m concrete boardwalk in Hobson Bay next to Ngapipi Road will take around 20 months to complete. This section will replace the temporary walking and cycling path on Ngapipi Road installed as an interim measure to offer a safer link to Tāmaki Drive.
