Parliament St (north) neighbourhood greenway

From Saturday 11 January 2025, work will start on the neighbourhood greenway (shared vehicle and cycling) space at the northern end of Parliament Street. John Fillmore Contracting (JFC) is doing this work on behalf of the NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi (NZTA). The work is due to be completed in January and involves changes to the road layout and markings, installation of new fencing along the rail corridor, and removal of several on-street car parks.

Initial work will happen during the day over three weekends; remaining on-road work will take place Monday to Saturday, between 8am and 6pm.  

This section of Parliament St is predominantly used by private vehicles to access properties and cyclists to connect with the Pito-One to Melling cycleway. Local access will be available throughout this work however, please follow all traffic management and directions from road workers. 

Eventually this shared space will link to shared pathways being built as part of Te Wai Takamori o Te Awa Kairangi.
