Dear Eliana

Bike-path around the Favona foreshore
I refer to your request which we received on 30 August 2019, regarding all information
regarding the processes and considerations undertaken in deciding on and implementing the
cycleway/bike-path around the Favona foreshore of the Manukau Harbour.
We transferred your request to Auckland Transport (AT) because your request
appeared to be more closely aligned with the functions of AT. However, after you clarified
your request as being for:
The full and complete information for is regarding the cycleway between Saleyards
Road in Otahuhu and Mahunga Drive in Favona.
We have now agreed with AT that the council are best placed to respond.
I also refer to our email to you on 25 September, acknowledging your request and extending
the timeframe for us to respond to your request. Thank you for your patience while we have
worked on this response.
In response to your request, I consulted with the council’s Community Facilities department
to provide information relevant to your request.
Please find following information
