What do you think of the new bilingual signs Porirua City Council is about to start rolling out around the city?
Featuring te reo Māori and English, the signs cost $27,360 to design which included work by cultural advisors, bilingual experts and "strategic exploration of our strategy for bilingual signage," a council spokesman said.
A further $1643 was spent on translation costs for 113 signs destined for places including Porirua Park, Ngati Toa Hall and Ngati Toa Domain.
Porirua City Council CE Wendy Walker said in a statement the city was proudly multicultural and the signs would reflect that.
"The move to bilingual signage is a reflection of our commitment to te reo Māori and our mana whenua and is being done with the support of Ngāti Toa."
We'd love to hear what you think, please leave us a comment and remember to mark your post NFP if you don't want it used in print,
