Please note the new date, due to opening of the bridge!Have you #gottogetout and explore Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland?
Thanks to Auckland Transport, Got To Get Out is hosting a series of free outdoor events to encourage our community to try walking & cycling for getting to work / school / leisure.
We’re also profiling new cycleways and commuter routes, and showcasing public transport options like bus and trains as a great way to get to your adventures.
About your free guided activity:
This easy grade walk from New Lynn train station to Avondale, via a BRAND NEW(!) route along the rail line from New Lynn Station through green spaces to just east of Blockhouse Bay Road.
The path will be mostly off-road and will cross the Whau River on a new purpose-built bridge (which will stand alongside the existing rail bridge).
Read all about it here https://at.govt.nz/projects-roadworks/new-lynn-to-avondale-shared-path/#route
Expect great korero / chats with other outdoor lovers, a chance to make new friends, and get some fitness!
