Background information
The Waikawa Beach footbridge, located at the end of Waikawa Beach Road was built in the 1990s after the previous bridge was washed away. Since then, both residents and visitors have used the bridge to access the northern part of the beach.
An engineering survey of the bridge, undertaken in May 2024, reported that the bridge is in poor or very poor condition.
As Council looks at how best to use its budget, we're considering a few options for the bridge's future, including extending the life of the current bridge or replacing it.
Why we need your input
To help with our decision-making, we'd like to know how often the bridge is used. The quick survey below will give us useful data, and we would appreciate your participation.
Please note this is just for gathering information, not formal consultation.
