Silverstream Spur is a block of land at the entrance to Upper Hutt that is under threat from a developer and Upper Hutt City Council, wanting to exchange it for land in Pinehaven, so the developer can put in a road and build houses on the ridge.
Forest & Bird Uppper Hutt want to retain the spur in council ownership and develop as part of the ecological corridor across the valley to allow birds to migrate from one side of the valley to the other. This is the narrowest point in the valley with Keith George Memorial Park on the western side and the spur on the eastern side.
