Tahunanui Pathways update

At the end of June, the Works and Infrastructure Committee signed off on the preferred route for the Tahunanui Pathways project moving to the detailed design phase.

Work on this is now underway so Tahunanui residents may see surveyors or other contractors working along the route gathering information that will be needed for the detailed design process.

The current proposal is to widen the existing footpath to a shared path on the southern end of Annesbrook Drive. On Parkers Road, Muritai and Waikare Streets, the preferred approach is a two-way separated cycleway. The research being carried out now will give us a clearer picture of how that can be achieved. 

Council will be keeping in touch with directly affected residents and the community groups that have been involved so far as the project evolves. Updates will also be available on the Council website, nelson.govt.nz/tahunanui-pathways.
