Lai family farewell

A revised plan for the Sunshine Bay to Days Bay (boardwalk) shared path section was presented at the ECB meeting last night.

The revised plan based on feedback from both the last week and also last night is available to view here (pdf)

In summary, the path has been reduced in width to 2.5m for this section, and some angle parking has been replaced by parallel parking. The initial proposal and details are described in the last email newsletter. If you have any further comments on this please notify HCC by 5pm Thursday using this email address TRSubmission@huttcity.govt.nz

NOTICE Note: Only the design for the section around to the boardwalk is being discussed now, the boardwalk and Ferry Road crossing are still in the design development and costing stage.
