Kaukapakapa footpath connections

We’re renewing the footpath along Kaipara Coast Highway in Kaukapakapa from 7 September to 11 December 2026.

We will be replacing the existing worn and uneven footpath. The work is expected to take around 3 months and will be carried out in sections.

Construction will mainly take place on weekdays, with some night works required outside the Kaukapakapa shops. Residents and businesses will be notified in advance of any night works and advised of any potential disruptions.

The works will include excavation, concrete pouring and curing concrete for a long-lasting footpath.

Where we're working

Works will happen in stages, between numbers 945 and 1105 Kaipara Coast Highway in Kaukapakapa.

What we're doing

During construction, we'll be:

• improving footpaths, with wider areas and new driveway entries
• improving safety and sightlines for people on foot while crossing the road
• installing zebra crossings
• realigning car parks to improve driver visibility and safety while reversing onto SH16.

What to expect during construction

The road will remain open with stop/go signs in place in both directions.

We will close sections of the footpath while we make the improvements.

Parking spaces outside Kaukapakapa shops could be temporarily closed while we do works nearby.

Kaukapakapa shops will stay open throughout the works, with small disruptions to business frontage and access.

Business owners will be contacted and kept informed while the works take place.
