The Banks Peninsula Community Board signed off the section from Marine Drive at Paradise Beach to the Charteris Bay Yacht Club.
The city council received mixed feedback from the community on route options between Orton Bradley Park and the Charteris Bay Yacht Club. The five options the city council proposed for the section through Charteris Bay were opposed by the residents’ association.
However, there was wider support for the small route which has been approved.
During the board meeting on Monday, two affected residents spoke about their concerns over how the track would be developed. They are worried about privacy, environmental impacts, health and safety and anti-social behaviour.
The city council is working to develop the rest of the track in stages.
