Aiken Reserve Waiake

Brian from Torbay - Long Bay

Do you know where Aiken Reserve is? Don't feel uninformed if you don't because this well used reserve adjacent to Deep Creek that runs between Deep Creek Rd and Beach Rd. is not signed. Even Google Maps don't know the name of the reserve. We have mooted to the Auckland Council for a couple of years to erect signs at both ends of the park so people know what it is called. No action taken. The name also has historical significance being named after one of the early landowners in the area. Also we have asked the council that solar lighting be erected on the pathway as it can be dark and unsafe at times. People are using the park in their early morning walks and after being dropped of from the bus that services Beach Rd. We envision lighting that will not only light up the pathway but the trees along the path which can be quite attractive. To get the council to take action needs a lot of voices telling them that this is what us as ratepayers want. Please take time and ring them on their hotline 301 01 01.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I dance in the sky with green and gold, a spectacle few are lucky to behold; I’m best seen in the south, a celestial sight—what am I, lighting up the New Zealand night?
