Public consultation on a Greenways Plan for Puhoi to Pakiri is due to get underway this month.
Greenways is an Auckland-wide initiative aimed at creating a series of connected pathways for cyclists and pedestrians.
The programme originally focused on Warkworth, Matakana and Snells Beach, but has been expanded to recognise the larger Mahurangi area where several groups were already working on pathway projects.
The Rodney Local Board has been told that while the focus will initially be on Warkworth, Omaha and Mahurangi East, the project will seek to capture and map existing walkways and studies in the wider region.
Auckland Transport has $125 million earmarked for walkways and cycleways over the next three years, while Auckland Council’s parks department has a further $25 million.
Consultation will be advertised and will take the form of drop-in sessions and a questionnaire. A final draft Puhoi to Pakiri Greenways plan is expected to be presented to the Local Board in June.
