Poll: Will you try out the improved walkway now it's open again?
Two years, and $2.1 million later, Putāruru’s popular Blue Spring/Te Waihou Walkway is now fully open to the public.
What was first billed as storm and landslip repairs, which would take about a year, and less than $1 million to fix, turned into a full repair, maintenance, and upgrade job which the South Waikato District Council says “shouldn’t need shutting again for the foreseeable future”.

Macindoe said Wellington needed to be “a little more nuanced” and take population growth into account.
