As part of the creation of the Awataha Greenway and the regeneration of Northcote Town Centre, Auckland Council is transforming Greenslade Reserve into a new recreational facility.
On-the-ground efforts to manage the recent fruit fly detections in the Northcote area continue, with the possibility of some controls remaining in place throughout the winter months.

There have still been no larvae, pupae or female flies found to date.
There is no change to the Birkenehad Point Zone A (red zone) or the Zone B (yellow zone), however the Northcote Point Zone A (red zone) has been removed.

From Biosecurity:
"We know that fruit flies are not active over the winter months, which means they wouldn't find their way into a trap. If there are still any out there, they will lay low somewhere warm until spring, which is when we will again step up operational activities. We are considering retaining the Controlled Area Notice, which restricts the movement of fruit and vegetables at a B Zone intensity throughout winter as a precautionary measure to prevent 'stowaway' fruit flies from getting out of the area. Biosecurity New Zealand will give residents plenty of advanced warning if some controls are to remain."

Hi neighbours. The discovery of a ninth male Queensland fruit fly in Northcote has told Biosecurity New Zealand it can't relax its efforts to control the flies, a spokeswoman says. It means there is a possibility controls on the movement of fruit and veggies will continue throughout winter.
