The existing clifftop footpath at Glover Park is narrow and in poor condition, with an uneven surface at places which creates tripping hazards. It is proposed to remove the existing pathway and to build a new wider concrete path with an exposed aggregate finish, along a similar alignment. The path will connect to three existing benches at the top of the cliff as part of the project. It will restore a safe and comfortable pedestrian access from the main accesses all around the park and along the clifftop line.

In the areas of known archaeology and culturally sensitive sites, the footpath will be bridged with minimal excavation being required. All excavations in the significant areas would be monitored by both Iwi representatives and archaeologists. As well in the areas adjacent to protected trees, it was agreed with the Auckland Council Arborist that the footpath would be build above ground to prevent any damage to the roots as a consequence of excavation. The works will be monitored by an appointed Arborist.

The proposed renewal includes:
A replacement concrete footpath of 430m in length and 1.5m wide, located generally along the route of the existing footpath, varying slightly at places where a better outcome can be achieved for existing vegetation or archaeological features.
