SH3 Ashhurst Bridge shared user path update
The SH3 Ashhurst Bridge shared user path will increase safe access for people walking and cycling across the bridge. We’re now seeking community feedback on this shared path.
Walking and cycling access to the Manawatū Gorge has traditionally been across the two-lane bridge constructed in 1969. However, in the absence of a dedicated cycling or walking lane across the bridge vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians share the bridge that currently has a 100km/h speed limit.
The project will install a clip-on shared path onto Ashhurst Bridge. Designed to improve pedestrian and cycling access into Te Ahu a Turanga, the bridge clip-on lane will add to the current network of cycling tracks in Ashhurst. It will connect to cycling lanes at either end and transition from bridge to the local cycling path.
SH3 Ashhurst Bridge shared user path project drop-in session
We’re hosting a drop-in session to update the public on the SH3 Ashhurst Bridge improvement project.
Come along at any time during the session to find out more about the planned Ashhurst Bridge clip-on walk and cycle way, including an overview of the design. We’re interested to hear from you in the community about any thoughts you might have about this project.
The drop-in session will be held on Thursday 27 August 2020 in the Centennial Room at Ashhurst Village Valley Centre between 4–7pm.
