Coastal Advisory Panel event, Ōtaki, Te Horo and Peka Peka - 24 September
🌊 Our Coastal Advisory Panel is engaging with communities up and down our coast to get your views for how your area should adapt to coastal changes resulting from climate change.
First off the block is the ‘Northern Adaptation Area’. This covers the coast from Ōtaki to Te Horo and Peka Peka. We’re grouping these areas together because they are experiencing similar coastal processes and changes.
If you live in or have connections with Ōtaki, Te Horo and Peka Peka, come along to share your views on what you value about this part of the Kāpiti Coast, what concerns you most about the coastal changes you’re seeing, and your ideas for how the community should adapt.
Saturday 24 September, 2-4pm, Ōtaki Rotary Lounge, 25 Aotaki Street, Ōtaki.

Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
