From Kauri Road to Soldiers Bay Place

John Gillon from

Today the Kaipatiki Local Board unanimously approved a change in name for the southern part of Kauri Road (off Balmain Road) to "Soldiers Bay Place".
For a number of years, many of the local residents have been having problems with emergency services, couriers, friends and relatives not being able to find their properties due to Kauri Road being split in the middle by bush. There is no vehicle access to each half of the road from the other, so while they are technically the same road on council plans, in reality they are distinct roads. Today we have solved that issue by renaming the southern portion.
Soldiers Bay Place was the preferred name of residents, as the road is located near Soldiers Bay and that would further assist in their addresses being located.

Note: Those residents that are currently on Kauri Road but use a Balmain Road address will be able to choose whether to opt for the new Soldiers Bay Place address or keep their current Balmain Road address. Council staff will be contacting them to discuss this prior to the new street signage being installed.

Adrian Tyler and I have been working on this issue on behalf of residents for a long time now, and it is great to finally make it a reality :)
