Smiths Bush now open!

John Gillon from

Smiths Bush Scenic Reserve is open again after a project to replace the older boardwalk that had deteriorated. It's a fantastic step-free urban bushwalk through old-world forest.
Here are a few pictures supplied by the project manager.
The seats are still to be repainted which should be happening this week, depending on the weather.

- Funded by the Kaipātiki Local Board.
