Gillingham Road Bridge to be upgraded, reserve land closed during construction
Our contractors, United Civil, are setting up a site office in Waitaua Stream Reserve, the area west of Gillingham Road Bridge. Access to that reserve is now closed and will remain closed until the project is complete (it has been previously used as an off-leash dog zone).
The existing one-lane bridge is to be replaced with a two-lane, concrete bridge to allow for future housing in the area. It will include a shared path on one side and will be raised about 1.5m higher than the old bridge to cater for future storm flows.
We expect the new bridge to be finished by January 2026 and the reserve will be reopened at that time. Thanks for your patience while we carry out the upgrade.
