Beach Haven Coastal Walk now open!
The Beach Haven Coastal Walk is now completely open! The upgraded tracks throughout Shepherds Park and Hellyers Creek are now finished (with some final points and tidy up to be completed in the new year).
You can now walk step-free from Cresta Ave through Shepherds Park, past the lookout, around Hellyers Creek Reserve, to the dip in Beach Haven Rd! And don't forget to detour to check out the boardwalk along the Shepherds Park water's edge.
The Kaipātiki Local Board members are very proud of what we've been able to achieve here, and the potential for additional connections in the future.
Thankyou to all of the council staff and contractors that have been involved in the different stages, and thankyou to everyone for your patience while work has been underway.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
