Orakei Boardwalk - which option do you like?

Meadowbank & St Johns Residents Association

More boardwalk questions! NZTA have narrowed it down to two options for Orakei Boardwalk railings - option A with powder coated metal with wooden uprights which is more see-though, and option B with all wood but much thicker posts so less visually permeable but preferred by some as keeping with other boardwalks in the area. And we are pleased to see the handrail height lowered to 1.2m so most adults and taller kids can see over the top. Put your vote in to NZTA before 9 December here: www.surveymonkey.com...

You can read more information here: www.nzta.govt.nz...

If you feel like sharing, post below on which you prefer- option A (metal) or option B (wood).

Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
