Stage 1 Construction: February to March 2025
To complete the work as quickly as possible, we will be working in stages, focusing on two locations at a time.
Location one: Kiwi Esplanade & Woodward Avenue
We will install speed humps and kerb build-outs to enhance street safety. What to expect:
• Temporary detours and road closures along Kiwi Esplanade and Woodward Avenue
• Resident access will be maintained at all times.
• Short construction period – We’ll complete the work as quickly as possible and move through to Woodward Avenue as soon as we can

• Traffic management measures will be in place to ensure the safe and continuous flow of traffic

Aroha mai. We understand this may cause some temporary inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we get on with the works.
What to expect during construction - February to October 2025
We won’t cover the whole route all at once but will focus on one or two areas at a time. This way, we can speed up the work and minimise disruptions. Please remember than our timelines and plans might change.

- How will it affect you?
Expect some delays, traffic congestion, and changes to parking may occur. Clear signage and traffic management will be in place to ensure everyone's safety.
Buses will be running but there will be temporary bus stops while we upgrade the current ones along the route.
Businesses will be open. Construction works will not be in the Māngere Bridge Village shops and Mangere Town Centre.

Why this project is important for Māngere
Supporting a fast-growing community
Māngere is thriving, but growth brings challenges - road safety, congestion, and access to better transport options. This project tackles those challenges by creating safer streets and sustainable travel choices.
Protecting tamariki and whānau
Whānau and schools have raised concerns about tamariki walking or biking on busy roads. These upgrades are designed to make their journeys safer, giving everyone the confidence to travel actively.
Auckland Airport Access
Over 30,000 people currently work at Auckland Airport and the surrounding area, and this number is projected to grow to 90,000 by 2044. Currently, reliable and timely transport options are limited by a lack of choice, and it is not possible to meet the growing demand with road capacity alone. The Māngere West Cycling Improvements will fill a missing link to the airport from Ngā Hau Māngere bridge and will provide a sustainable, affordable, and reliable transport option for locals and commuters.
Encouraging active travel & reducing carbon emissions
Safe spaces for walking and biking promote healthier, affordable transport options while reducing carbon emissions, contributing to a more sustainable future for Māngere.
