The widening of the pathway through North Hagley Park from Armagh St to Matai St starts Monday 18th April, taking 8 weeks or so.

In reply to LennyBoy. The page that the link “Wigram-Magdala Link” goes to to see the progress on Wigram Rd over Curletts Rd to Magdala Pl and on to Birmingham Dr has gone. Do you have a new link? I am very keen to try this route once it is finished.

In reply to Steve.

Yes, that is the plan; the new bridge includes a pathway that connects the two parts of the Southern Motorway cycleway. More details about the plan can be seen in our earlier post:

Should all be completed towards the end of the year.

I’m interested to know if the cycle way beside Wigram Road is to be continued on to and over the new over bridge crossing Curletts Rd and thereby connecting to the cycle way along the motor way at Annex Rd? The current option along Lunns Rd is a bit hit and miss, luckily mostly miss.

The section of the coastal pathway along Beachville Road is just about there. It will be joined up with the Causeway section by going along Beachville Road (less than ideal due to having to cross dozens of driveways but less of a political hot potato than following the coastline) and then through a naturalised area with boardwalks opposite Redcliffs Park. Hopefully the next step will be a kids bike skills park alongside the pathway.
