Connecting communities to each other and to the river
The construction of Te Whau Pathway will restart again soon! Te Whau Pathway Project is more than just building a shared path. It is about making great communities even better.
The pathway, following 12 kilometres of riverbank between Te Atatu and New Lynn, will open up access to one of the most beautiful rivers in Auckland.

About the pathway
The pathway will connect neighbouring suburbs, connect two harbours via Green Bay, offer amazing recreational choices and lead to safer and more sustainable alternatives for travel. Pathways like these bring tourists and stimulate local economies. Above all, Te Whau Pathway Project aims to nurture a sense of pride, ownership and kaitiakitanga in the Whau River, one of the jewels in West Auckland’s crown.
