Waka Kotahi (NZTA) is advising motorists travelling southbound on the Auckland Harbour Bridge to expect delays due to the closure of the clip-on lanes.

The lanes will be closed for resurfacing and other maintenance from Boxing Day for up to ten days. This closure will affect the Shelley Beach off-ramp with access controlled by a stop/go managment system.

Motorists are encouraged to use the Western Ring route if there are delays on the bridge. Three lanes will be open to traffic in both directions says Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency Auckland System Manager, Andrea Williamson.

“The resurfacing process on the bridge requires 3-5 days to “cure” before allowing traffic on it, so while it may look as if nothing is happening the team will be using the lanes closure for other maintenance tasks, including water blasting and painting just below the road deck.”

Motorists are advised to check Waka Kotahi's social media sites for any updates on the lane closures during the 10 day period.

Auckland Zoo bird keepers Casey and Erin have helped Ark in the Park to band and weigh tiny 15-day old kokako chicks.

Ark in the Park is an open sanctuary and conservation project in the Waitākere Ranges near Auckland.

Zoo staff joined volunteers to take an annual census in the west Auckland nature reserve, recording all banded and un-banded birds.

About 1600 pairs of kokako remain in the north island.

The census is held to note their presence in the forest and determine if their populations are growing.

The bands are used to identify each individual bird which bears its own unique colour combination.

Data gleaned from the survey is used to scout out nests.

The chicks are moved from the nest for weighing and banding before being returned swiftly to their mother.

The path will trial connecting the existing cycleway in Savoy Rd to the town centre and comes after two community co-design workshops this month.

The pop-up cycleway is part of Waka Kotahi’s $210,000 Innovating Streets for People pilot programme.

Waitakere Ranges Local Board Member Mark Allen said there will be room for evaluation and feedback at the end of the trial.

“.... providing a safe way for the community to use other methods of transport to connect to the town centre will only be beneficial in the long run, and that’s why this project is so exciting," Allen said.
