Hinemoa Street Roadworks

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Work is currently underway to reseal Hinemoa Street, Birkenhead, and is expected to be completed on Monday 24 February.
Unfortunately the work is happening at night to avoid disrupting traffic, and that does mean that neighbours will need to put up with noise from 7pm-5pm during this period (except for Friday and Saturday nights).

The good news is that unlike what is happening in other streets (see my earlier post), Hinemoa Street is being upgraded from chip-seal to smooth-seal/hotmix, however this does mean that the work is extra-noisy as it requires scraping back the old seal.

Kauri Glen Reserve treetop bridge and boardwalk now open!

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

NEWSFLASH: The wait is over and the Kauri Glen Reserve treetop bridge and boardwalk is NOW OPEN to the public! Check it out!

And please join us for our official opening/celebration in a couple of weeks!
➡️ When: 12pm Sunday 28 April
➡️ Where: Kauri Glen Road entrance to Kauri Glen Reserve
➡️ Facebook event: www.facebook.com...
Free BBQ! Walk the new track!

This is a new step-free route between Kauri Glen Road and Tui Glen Road, with a refurbished track (including steps) to Raymond Terrace. The new bridge is around 6 storeys high with a very impressive view of the forest tree tops.
The new tracks, bridge and boardwalk have been built to a standard to help prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease, which is especially important in this park.
*** Please always clean your shoes, bikes, prams and wheelchairs at the stations. ***

Note: We made the decision to allow public access earlier than expected to prevent further damage to the forest by those who were throwing the fences into the trees 🙁

Missing Cat - Babatjie

Michelle and Andrew from Birkdale

HI all, My cat has been missing since 8 April 2024, Birkdale Road and Seon Place. Please keep an eye out for her, she is microchipped but does not have a collar. I am very worried, she never stayed away.
