Completed Projects Listen Mangaweka Bridge Replacement 1 JUNE 2022 The new Mangaweka bridge was officially opened on 20 May 2022 one month ahead of schedule. The existing historic 115-year-old bridge was closed for repairs in October 2016. On inspection, it found that the timber beams were weakened beyond repair. The bridge was temporarily reopened with a maximum weight limit of 6 tonne while Council began the design and consenting process to construct a new bridge. For a full project overview, click below.
