Jutting footpath claims kneecap

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Hi everyone,

Dawn King, 81, was walking her son's black labrador, Max, around the block in Rototuna when she tripped and fell over a lip of concrete on Cate Rd.

She broke her kneecap and is now stranded for four weeks.

After contacting Hamilton City Council about the incident, staff visited the site and it's due to be fixed within a week.

Do you have a dodgy footpath that needs fixing? If so, please get in touch on 849-9666 or email news@waikatotimes.co.nz or comment below.

What's your favourite piece of Waikato history?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Car parks inspired a milking shed design that took off around the world and became a piece of Waikato District history.

A hundred-year-old church and gravestones from the 1880s will also feature as the district turns the spotlight on its past for its first Heritage Day on April 20.
