What is going on here? Is this all about removing parking? The cones and barricades are temporary, but the orange poles look permanent. Quite a nice colour in the right place, but here somewhat intrusive (depends on your taste I guess).
The bollards are yellow (same as the traffic light post), this pic must have been about 8 pm. We really don’t know why this was done. The council voted to keep parallel parking and not angle parking (the only thing that they were given a vote on. A few parking spaces were eliminated).
But they have left space further up for angle parking instead of having two lanes.
The KCDC knows what’s best for you
It’s all good. You folks down south are just getting a little taste of bureaucratic incompetence that mainstreet Otaki township endured for 2 years.
Two years of mess to do a road a few hundred feet long…
They pulled down the good old stone wall to put that monstrocity up ? The old stone wall had character and definitely provided a safer option . What a mess !
From his photo it would appear that we have at least one Town Councillor who has the Proper Care & Consideration of Waikanae in his thoughts of such a Great Atractive Suburb and surrounding area. Pity we have so many others who are not so concerned.
