The recently opened Waimārama Rd cycleway will be temporarily closed after being damaged during heavy rain.
Hastings District Council said on Tuesday that intense rain over the past three days had caused scouring and surface damage on some sections, including boardwalk sections of the track.
The cycleway will be temporarily closed for minor repairs along with the remainder of construction works once the track has dried, to allow machinery access without causing further damage.
The council said the work would be completed "as soon as possible" and will be paid for within the existing budget provision.
The track is expected to reopen within the next fortnight.
