About the project

We're building 3.5 km of new walking and cycling facilities in Te Ararata Māngere West.

This project is about more than just new cycleways — it's about creating a better-connected Māngere. It will link people to schools, parks, churches, Auckland Airport, and other key destinations in Māngere and beyond.

Auckland Council has prioritised funding for this project to improve transport options and equity in Māngere.


Construction Update: Stage 1 (February to April 2025)

To complete the work as quickly as possible, we will be working in stages, focusing on two locations at a time.

Location 1: Kiwi Esplanade & Woodward Avenue

What’s completed:

  • Speed humps and chicanes
  • Kerb build-outs
  • New lighting poles installed

Still to come: New streetlights (awaiting connection)


Location 2: Coronation Road (Between 146 Coronation Road and Hastie Avenue)

What’s completed:

  • New bus drop-off zone for Māngere Education Centre
  • Upgraded bus stops
  • New raised pedestrian & cycle crossing at the Mountain Road roundabout entrance

Still to come: Installation of concrete cycleway separators


Location 3: Coronation Road Roundabout (near BP Station)

What’s completed: Roundabout upgrades

Still to come: New footpath, driveway, berm, and kerb upgrades.

A new signalised crossing will also be installed here to make it easier for people on bikes and on foot to cross the road. The crossing is a push-button crossing, meaning the lights will only change when someone presses the button to cross safely.

The crossing connects to the new cycleway on the park side of the road, keeping riders away from the busy BP and church driveways.


Stage 2 (April to May 2025)

Location: Outside Māngere Bridge School

When: Starting 8 April to early May 2025

What’s planned:

  • New sharedpath connecting to new cycleway on Coronation Road to Māngere
  • Raised pedestrian crossing on the corner of Taylor Road and Coronation Road (outside The Gaff Café)
  • New road markings from Woodward Avenue to the Taylor/Coronation Road intersection

Aroha mai. We understand construction can be disruptive and appreciate your patience and understanding while we get on with the works.


What to expect during construction - February to September 2025

Please remember that our timelines and plans might change.

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.

  • 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 such road safety, congestion, and the need for 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 aim 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.



Building Māngere's confidence on bikes

Alongside providing safer infrastructure for walking and cycling, we’re planning to deliver a range of initiatives to help people feel capable and confident about taking more trips by bike. These may include e-bike trials, learn-to-ride courses, and community group rides. We’ll be promoting these in the local community in the coming months.
