Bridge over the Takaka River

This photo taken in 2014 shows the bridge that crosses the Takaka River just below the Cobb Power Station. The road provides access to the Cobb Valley  in the Kahurangi National Park, but it’s not usable at the moment because another bridge further down the Takaka River was washed out in Cyclone Gita in February 2018. Repairs are proving difficult and this way in to the Cobb Valley is closed off until later this year.
