Hattaway Bridge is listed as a bridge in Coxs Bay, Auckland City, with a Google rating of 3.8.
A good footbridge or small bridge does a simple job well: it connects paths or streets safely, has a solid, non-slip surface and railings that are in good repair and gives clear, step-free access where it can. If you are using one, check the surface after rain, as timber and metal can be slippery, and keep an eye out for other users such as cyclists, joggers and pushchairs. Regulars treat a bridge as part of a longer walk, linking a park, a stream or the coast, and know that views from bridges often show water, birds and plants that are hard to see from the path. Follow any weight, bike or dog signs and take care in the dark, as lighting varies. In Coxs Bay, near Westmere and the Waitemata Harbour, paths can be damp and muddy, so shoes with grip help.
For people walking or cycling around Coxs Bay, Hattaway Bridge is a local crossing to know about.
