Palmerston North is getting a new bridge! You may be thinking, who cares? But this 9 kilometre walkway is important for almost 18,000 people that live and work in the area. 

The pathway connects the city to various important organisations while taking walkers and cyclists through farms, pa sites, forests, and a military camp. 

Massey student Ross Bidlake lives in Cloverlea and will be using the new pathways to get to uni, and he's joins us to explain why it's a big deal.

The show starts on Sunday on Prime and we're joined now by one of the scientists involved, The University of Auckland's Associate Professor Jan Lindsay.
