Tracks and trails
Closures
-
Campbells Mill track – full length closure, Monday–Friday 10 November–22 December
Due to harvesting of a section of the forest directly adjacent to Campbell Mill track, foresters need to close Campbell Mill track weekdays until Christmas while trees are felled. The road will be blocked with netting and signage. While the harvesting is happening, we will also undertake maintenance of the track, trimming back overgrown vegetation.
There will be a further closure 3–13 January.
- Waikanae River Trail closed at the old main road bridge on the north side (Waikanae side) – mid November–mid December
A diversion is in place.
Closed while a ‘clip-on’ walking and cycling lane is added to the bridge.
Diversion marked in blue.
