TITLE:

Good Progress on Mangonui Waterfront Project

Good progress is being made on changes to the design of the Mangonui Waterfront project to meet community aspirations.

Work to change the seaward aspect of the reclamation area at the south end from a concrete slab to a rock face has now been substantially completed.

Contractors are now working on lowering the camber on the existing concrete platform on the seaward side.

The next step is to complete finishing work at the reclamation area and install the timber boardwalk.

Once this work has been completed, the intention is to review the overall appearance before final decisions are made on other aspects of remedial work suggested by the local community. This includes how a lower level boardwalk might be incorporated if it is going to be necessary and whether the safety fence along the seawall should be changed or removed entirely. If after the review a lower boardwalk is required, a new Resource Consent will be needed.
