Following completion of the first short section of footpath, our most important long-term goal as residents association continues to be the creation of a walk and cycle path to connect the Moutere Hills Community Centre to Upper Moutere village.
The MHRA committee recently performed a renewed and detailed review of all the available possible routes for this pathway - taking into consideration such things as total travel distance, construction cost, community preference, deviations, land access, possible hazards, difficulties arising from falling trees, damage from expected flooding along the rivers, maintenance cost, and more.

The Moutere Hills Residents Association will be constructing a section of public footpath alongside the Moutere Highway between the Moutere Hills Community Centre and Country Kids preschool.
- Work will be carried out in the road reserve between April 17 and April 19.
- Temporary traffic management will be in place. The road shoulder in this area will be closed during this time and pedestrian access along the road side may be blocked.
- Normal access to the main entrances of the Community Centre and Country Kids will not be affected.
- Please stay clear of the construction site at all times, and please inform others to do the same. Apologies for any inconvenience this might cause.
This project is entirely community-funded, and made possible with donations from the Sarau Trust!

More housing, more farming, more roads?
We asked you what you want for the future of the Moutere Hills - here is what you said.
80% of people in the Moutere say the area is a great place to live! About half of the respondents support more housing - the other half doesn't. 50% of residents state that farming and production are at exactly the right level. 80% of people say we need more footpaths and bike paths - nobody wants new roads.
