He Ara Kotahi Pathway in Aotearoa New Zealand shows how bridges can do more than connect places; they connect people.     Grounded in Māori design principles, the bridge incorporates respect for the landscape, a fresh integration of the past, present, and future, and a new approach to integrate the city with its surroundings. He Ara Kotahi was delivered through close community partnership with Palmerston North City Council . In its first year, the award‑winning walking and cycling bridge welcomed 600,000 users, quickly becoming a defining feature of Te Papa-i-Oea (Palmerston North).     This is the kind of impact that helped earn WSP the No. 1 ENR ranking in Bridges, a recognition of our multidisciplinary teams delivering technically rigorous solutions shaped by community, culture, and place.  Learn more about the project: https://lnkd.in/enpWA25R #WeAreWSP WSP in New Zealand WSP Transport & Infrastructure
