Goldie's Bush Track Upgrades

Hey all....

Received this a few days ago. If you're planning trips there, be aware that you won't be able to access all of the tracks.

"Upgrade works have begun on the Constable Road End of the walkway.
The planned works includes the upgrade of the track from the Constable Road end to the Mokoroa Stream crossing including the
installation of a new bridge across the Mokoroa stream. The planned works also includes the installation of a new carpark and a small toilet facility at this road end.

Construction works on site will be underway from the 29th of October through to the 18th of December. During this time there will be no major disruption to users of the track although users can expect some delay and should adhere to alll safety signage on site. Works will break for the Christmas period and then start again on the 11th ofJanuray comencing at the end of February 2010. Throughout this second period the Constable road section of the walkway will be closed to all use. Visitors wishing to walk in the reserve wil need to access it from the Horsman Road end instead.

Closures and delays are for visitor safety reasons primarily and to ensure minimal disturbance to the fragile nature of the works during the construction phase of the project. For further information please contact the Auckland Area office on 09 445 9142."
