Ngā Tapuwae o Toi Walkway improvements to commence

Recent Ngā Tapuwae o Toi Walkway improvements have generated very positive user comments.

Stage two of the Ngā Tapuwae o Toi Walkway upgrade - from Kapu Te Rangi junction to the Kōhī Point Lookout - may lead to minor delays for walkers during the coming weeks.

The project is part of an ongoing track improvement programme being undertaken by the Whakatāne District Council and will include a number of improvements, including the removal of some existing steps and the installation of new box steps, erosion controls and improved track benching.

Site work is expected to begin on the track on Monday, 30 July and will take approximately six weeks to complete.

The walkway will remain open to the public throughout the upgrade period, but walkers may face short delays at any of the multiple work zones, and when helicopter operations are underway.

Whakatāne District Council Places and Open Spaces Asset Officer, Paul Edhouse, says the scheduled works will continue to add value to one of the country's best urban coastal walkways.

'We're grateful for the public's cooperation while the upgrading programme progresses,” he says.

'The feedback we've received from track users about the previous upgrading work has been very positive.”

Caution signs will be placed at track access points to inform users of the construction work underway.

The Council apologises for any inconvenience experienced by track users during the construction period.
