Granity and Ngakawau get $3.6 million Government-funded seawall
The Government is pledging $3.6 million for a seawall to protect the West Coast's State Highway 67 at Granity.
The funding is part of the $12 billion NZ Upgrade Programme announced by the Government last month when $300m was allocated for capital projects in regional New Zealand.
Regional Economic Development Minister Shane Jones also announced $15m of funding for West Coast ports and roads, which would help improve safety and resilience, and enable future economic growth.
About $5m would be spent upgrading six single-lane bridges on SH73 and SH6 and a $1.5m cycle and walkway would be added to the Tatare Bridge at Franz Josef.
Westport and Greymouth would both receive $4m to install floating pontoons to help the fishing industries and Jacksons Bay near Haast would get $500,000 to repair its wharves.
