Normanton Reserve Sinkhole

UPDATE: The fencing is now in place at Normanton Reserve. The path between Normanton St and Ashfield Rd is still open.

Unfortunately a large portion of the southern open area of Normanton Reserve will be fenced off soon due to a collapsed stormwater pipe deep underground.
There has been a small tomo for some time next to one of the pieces of fitness equipment, that has also affected the concrete path. Council's Healthy Waters dept have investigated and found that the situation is significant. Until a solution is confirmed, the area needs to be fenced off for as a precautionary safety measure.
Several years ago, there was a plan to replace the pipe with a daylit stream due to issues with the pipe, but Healthy Waters put the plan on the backburner due to other priorities. It seems that now something similar may need to be done with some urgency...

From Healthy Waters:
"Healthy Waters have identified a significant problem with the public stormwater pipe under Normanton Reserve which resulted in a tomo and depression adjacent to the footpath and stormwater manhole. While a solution is being investigated with a high priority, we have requested Parks & Community Facilities to partially close the Reserve off, in order to keep the general public safe."

Locking up and leaving for adventure

If you’ve seen the current Ryman TV commercial, then you’ve probably seen Judy rowing past the camera on a beautiful still Auckland morning.

Rowing is one of Judy’s passions, and she’s had great success with it, competing up and down the country since picking up the sport in her 50s. A highlight in her rowing career was in 2017 when Judy, along with her rowing partner Alison, competed in The World Masters Games, winning a silver medal in the 1000m Women’s Pairs.

She currently holds the title of top women's single sculler in the 70-75 year age group in New Zealand and is second in the North Island for the 65-75 year age group.

Adventure is in Judy’s DNA. She’s always up for hitting the open road and exploring the fantastic wilderness that Aotearoa has to offer. When she’s not rowing, Judy loves to hike. And she’s no stranger to several hard South Island trails.

Having a lifestyle this active and busy means that Judy doesn’t want to be worrying about her home while she is away. She chose Ryman’s Murray Halberg Village because it suits all her needs, right down to the location near the water as well as all the safety and security benefits.

“It’s a lock up and leave it situation,” she says.
