Is repairing Mauao a community job?

Reporter

Hi neighbours - repairs to Tauranga's iconic Mauao walking track is predicted to cost $5.2 million, but locals say $60,000 and some shovels is all they need to fix it.

The public have expressed community-led ideas to repair the Mauao track, and the need for the council to just "keep it simple".

Volunteers could simply dig into the slope of the track to allow access around the damaged area, using local builders to remove "less than a truck full of dirt" to allow the track to reopen.
