The sessions, hosted by the Department of Conservation, will be held on Saturday 25 May 2024.
Two community drop-in sessions will be held:
- The Mercury Bay Community Boardroom, 10 Monk St, Whitianga, 9.30 am-12 pm.
- The Hahei Community Hall, 52 Hahei Beach Road, Hahei, 2.00 pm-4.30 pm.
Attendees will be able to read information on the walking access reinstatement options being considered and talk to DOC staff about what those options entail.
People attending the drop-in sessions can also respond to a DOC survey on reinstatement options. Those who cannot attend the drop-in sessions can email cathedralcove@doc.govt.nz to provide feedback.
Feedback from the public will be included in decision-making processes.
The track to Cathedral Cove beach has been closed to the public since February 2023, when it was damaged by landslides caused by extreme weather events.
