Te Ara Tipuna Charitable Trust - Te Ara Tipuna Trail

Proposal

The Te Ara Tipuna Charitable Trust has lodged an application for multiple resource consents to enable the design and construction of Stage 1 of the Te Ara Tipuna Trail. The Stage 1 trail is a public walking trail only and runs for approximately 500km from Gisborne around the coast to Ōpōtiki.

The Trail is proposed to be located across private and multiple owner land blocks, along road corridors, reserves and the coastal margin.

The application is supported by an interactive GIS map to show the location of the proposed trail and a series of reports that describe the design and nature of the Trail and the actual and potential effects on the environment.

To use the Interactive Map for the proposed trail alignment and property information

The application has been lodged with Gisborne District Council, Ōpōtiki District Council and the Bay of Plenty Regional Council and will be processed through a joint submission and hearing process. A series of district and regional consents are required for the construction and use of the trail.

The application includes an assessment of environment effects and a series of technical reports that discuss and assess the proposed alignment and construction of the trail.
