Auckland Cycleway - South Western - Onehunga to Mt Eden

When the South Western motorway was constructed a cycleway was included as part of the project. This cycleway links Onehunga with Sandringham Road extension so links Mt Eden with the airport via Onehunga. The cycleway also incorporates bridges which link the community on the southern side with the separated community on the other side which is important to retain the access of the houses on the southern side of the motorway. This allows children from the southern side to cycle to the schools that are located in Mt Roskill. The cycleway is not continuous and local roads are used on part of the route and going west there is a reasonable climb to negotiate.
