Hawke's Bay cycle trails have been given a $597,000 government boost towards two projects.
The money is part of a $25 million project to enhance and extend the Great Rides of Nga Haerenga, the New Zealand Cycle Trail.
Hawke's Bay co-ordinator Vicki Butterworth said one project was to prevent flooding under two bridges at the Ahuriri Lagoon and the other was the construction of an off-road path to Craggy Range's Havelock North winery.
"Occasionally at high tides the lagoon paths will flood," she said.
Headroom was a problem for a raised track "so we are working with NZTA to find solutions".
