Ōkere Falls to Hamurana Road lakeside pathway
The end is in sight. We’re getting closer to completing the 3km shared path between Ōkere Falls and Hamurana Road, including four pedestrian islands, so people can safely enjoy walking or biking alongside the lake. The recent wet weather has slowed some work down however it will be completed later in April.
Other good news we can share is we have funding to finish the short section of shared path between Hamurana Road and the Mourea Bridge, at the Ohau Channel. Our contractor, Downer, will get on to this section around May 2022.
Like many other workforces, we are dealing with team members isolating or as household contacts from COVID-19. Waka Kotahi takes seriously our responsibilities for the safety of our staff, contractors, and members of the public. All worksites have comprehensive COVID-19 protocols and work plans in place for the various settings and phases, which are strictly adhered to.
Our contractors have also planned to make sure work can continue, however, there may be some disruption. We thank you for your patience and look forward to updating you closer to completion of the shared path.
