Construction Update June 2026
We are starting construction on the Clark Road Shared Path on Wednesday 24 June, 2026.
Here is some information about the work which will be completed in sections to minimise disruption.
When
Stage 1: Works in front of Hobsonville Church
Between 24 June and 3 July 2026
Stage 2: Works in front of Ryman Retirement Village
Between 3 July and 14 July 2026
Stage 3: Works in front of Te Kori Scott Point
Between 14 July and 23 July 2026
Stage 4: Works on residential side of Clark Road
Between 23 July and 30 July 2026
Please note the dates and order of stages may change pending conditions on site.
What we’re doing
Installing a new walking and cycling path, and new pram crossings along Clark Road.
Installing new parking bays.
Upgrading the existing stormwater drains.
How it may impact you
On-street parking will be limited during works.
Works will create noise and vibration; we’ll do our best to keep noise levels down.
How travel is affected
Lanes on Clark Road will be reduced at times.
Detours will be in place to redirect traffic around the work site.
Traffic will detour through Eyton Kay Road, Sidney Wallingford Way or David Carnegie Drive, depending on the stage of the works.
We expect a traffic delay of 5 minutes as a result of this work.
Traffic controllers will be on site to assist you around the work site. Please follow all signs and traffic directions.
Area of works is outlined by red rectangle.
Engagement Outcome and Update May 2026
Thank you to everyone who shared your thoughts during engagement.
Feedback shows overall support for the shared path and safety improvements. The main concern raised was the loss of some parking, which is required to improve safety and visibility.
Following feedback and Local Board input, the design has been updated.
Key changes include:
Removal of the proposed crossing on the northern side of Sidney Wallingford Way
Reinstatement of two car parks (reducing loss from five to three on the residential side)
Additional car park created on the park side (total of 34 new spaces)
New broken yellow lines to prevent illegal parking
We’re responding to requests to improve safety and make it easier for people to walk, cycle and get around Clark Road in Hobsonville.
As part of a joint initiative between the Upper Harbour Local Board’s Transport Capital Fund and our Walking Programme, we’ll be building a new shared walking and cycling path between Scott Road and Squadron Drive. This will also make it easier for people to get to Te Kori Scott Point Park. At the moment, there is no footpath and no parking on the eastern side of this part of Clark Road. We’ll also be finishing the upgrade to the zebra crossing near 98 Clark Road as part of a recent Local Board funded project.
These changes will create a safer, well-connected route for the community and improve access to nearby streets, parks and local facilities.
The changes we’re making in June 2026
Install a continuous walking and cycling path along the southern side of Clark Road, connecting Scott Road and Squadron Drive.
Install 33 off-road parking bays with P180 parking time restrictions beside the new shared path. These restrictions will apply from Monday to Sunday, 8am to 6pm.
Provide low-level planting, which removes 5 off-road parking spaces in the following areas:
Outside 84 Clark Road
Outside 112 Clark Road
Between 39 Clark Road and Eyton Kay Road
Install pram crossings to help pedestrians cross Clark Road and navigate to David Carniege Road, Sidney Wallingford Way and Eyton Kay.
Remove existing pram crossings in the following areas:
Outside 96 Clark Road (north of David Carnegie Road) as it is unsafe and leads to a driveway
Outside 122 Clark Road (north of Eyton Kay Road) to provide parking outside Te Kori Scott Point Park
Install tactile pavers (yellow guidance markers) at these crossings to assist the visually impaired
Tree trimming above the new shared path outside Hobsonville Church and Cemetery.
Install new stormwater drains along Clark Road to improve storm water management.
