Nelson Park footbridge removed for repairs
All those who normally use the footbridge
over the Hapara Stream that runs between Nelson Park and
Loisels Reserve will have to take an alternative route for
the next couple of weeks. The footbridge is in need of
urgent repair. The bridge has been removed for repainting
and to repair the deck.
To ensure public safety and to keep paint and dust out of the stream, the footbridge has been removed to a workshop where the repairs will be carried out before it is reinstalled in a couple of weeks.
The footbridge is used by recreational walkers as will as those commuting between Enterprise Pool, Campion College, Lytton High School, Nelson Park and homes in the wider Lytton West area.
The alternative route is along Nelson Road via the Campion Road Footbridge. Gisborne District Council apologies for any inconvenience this may cause general users.
