Kauri Glen Reserve - Update on Bridge

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Here's a sneak peek at progress on the massive tree-top glulam bridge being built at Kauri Glen Reserve as part of Stage 3 of track upgrades in the park. Both ends of the bridge are now in place.
When completed, the bridge will be 60m long and up to 20m high, with boardwalk at both ends. It will provide a step-free route between Kauri Glen Rd and Tui Glen Rd, with steps up to Raymond Tce. We are expecting the bridge to be open in December.

The new tracks, bridge and boardwalk are being built to a standard to help prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease, which is especially important in this park.

Thanks to Fort Projects for showing myself, Danielle Grant and Paula Gillon progress so far.

- Funded from both the Kaipātiki Local Board's renewal budget and the Natural Environment Targeted Rate.
