Leigh Scenic Reserve trackwork gets underway

John Gillon from

Fences have now gone up at Leigh Scenic Reserve, Bayview, in preparation for stage 1 of the work to upgrade the tracks to help prevent kauri dieback disease. There will also be 3 shoe-cleaning stations installed.
The project has been split into 5 stages, with stages 1-3 at Leigh Scenic Reserve and stages 4-5 at the Glenfield Coastal Walkway between Lynn Reserve and Manuka Reserve.
During the project, there will be two helicopter drops, during which the Lynn Reserve playground will be temporarily closed.

Below are the dates for the 5 stages of work, however there could be some overlap, particularly between stages 2 and 3:

Stage One: G7, G8, G9, G10 (from 11.10.21 – 04.12.21)
Stage Two: G11, G12, G13 (from 06.12.21 – 19.02.22)
Stage Three: G12, G13 (from 31.01.22 – 19.02.22)
Stage Four: F5, F4, F3, F1 (from 21.02.22 – 01.05.22)
Stage Five: E4 (from 18.04.22 – 01.05.22)

Work hours: 7:30am – 6:00pm, Monday – Saturday. No work on Sundays or public holidays.
