New Shoe Cleaning Stations in Kaipātiki

John Gillon from

The first of many shoe cleaning stations has been installed at the Glade Place entrance to Le Roy's Bush Reserve, with more to follow soon at other Le Roys entrances, Fern Glen Reserve and Kauri Glen Reserve.
These will become a more common site, as the Kaipātiki Local Board, Auckland Council and Pest Free Kaipātiki work to upgrade and re-open tracks that have been closed to prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease.
These stations include a built-in scrubber for shoes and a foot-operated spray (much easier to use than the hand-held bottles). There is also a seat if you need it, and a water spray for dog paws or bare feet.
Contaminated water and dirt will be collected in the trough under the station and pumped into the sewage system. However for maximum protection of our kauri trees, it is still recommended to clean your shoes/boots at home in the laundry sink prior to using the cleaning stations.
