Shared path between Waipukurau and Waipawa officially opened

A new shared path in Central Hawke’s Bay was officially opened on 26 March.

Designed to connect the towns of Waipawa and Waipukurau, the 4.6km concrete path provides a safe space to encourage people to walk, scoot, ride or use a mobility scooter between the towns.

The project broke ground in May 2021, and the 4.6km concrete path opened to the public in December 2021. The construction was a joint project between Waka Kotahi and Central Hawke’s Bay District Council.
