20130211_2645_1D3-840 South New Brighton bridge damage (under repair)
Earthquake damage (that right hand abutment should be vertical with the bridge and the hand rail level). Bridge is closed to eastbound traffic (to left) and has a 3500kg weight limit as well.
The eastern approach is the same. Damage caused mainly in the 04/09/10 and 22/02/11...

Tree stumps and wood chips from trees that were removed from the South Brighton pine forest. The photographer comments, "A Sunday afternoon ride to New Brighton, then back via Aranui, Wainoni, Dallington, and Richmond. Not a cheerful experience. South Brighton pine forest - gone! The pines had become poisoned by the rising saline water table, so they've all had to come out".

The South Brighton bridge abutment (city side). Bridge looks fine, just both approaches have moved A LOT!
The Sumner cliffs photographed from the South Brighton spit. Shipping containers can be seen along Main Road to protect passing cars from rock fall.
73 months after the earthquake that damaged it, the jetty at South New Brighton Domain is still not repaired. Seven years ago it was straight and level.
Dull, flat and orrible (horrible) light meant this image was destined to become monochrome!
When I was a kid this bit of land in the foreground was level and extended at least three times further out, but after the earthquakes you can see the angle that land near the river slumped. We used to catch a lot of herrings (yellow -eyed mullet) here when I was a kid, hence the local name of Herring Bay. Across the river is the Bexley Wetlands.
Road cones outside South New Brighton School have been decorated with flowers for the anniversary of the 22 February 2011 earthquake.
