 The central lagoon, now known as Aotea Lagoon, remains but is reduced in size.From Paremata to Mana the track was realigned to the West of the original track and a new double-track bridge was built across the entrance to the Pauatahanui Inlet.The original single-track railway bridge, built in 1885, was removed allowing room for the construction of a second road bridge in 2004.
