Getting on with it

From City Scene, published on 11 May, 2008

St Heliers boardwalk: A boardwalk along St Heliers Bay was completed earlier this year, incorporating heritage seats, memorial picnic tables and new rubbish bins. The upgrade of this popular area also included new planting and landscaping.	Hobson Bay walkway: The council has completed another section of the Hobson Bay walkway, between Awatea Reserve and the base of Point Resolution in Parnell. The coastal “out and back” track provides a 1.5km return trip for users.
Mt Eden footpaths: Essential maintenance work has been undertaken on footpaths in View Road (between Mt Eden and Dominion roads) and Valley Road (between Mt Eden and Esplanade roads).	New footpaths for Balmoral: The council recently upgraded footpaths in St Albans Avenue (between Dominion and Eldon roads), and Tanekaha Street (between King Edward and Elizabeth streets).
Waiheke boardwalk: Pedestrians can walk safely along Donald Bruce Road thanks to the installation of a new timber boardwalk linking the car park to Kennedy Point wharf.	Safer walking in Grey Lynn: Footpath improvements were recently completed in Arnold Street (between Cockburn Street and Rose Road) and Chamberlain Street (between Richmond and Rose roads)
