Anita Baker - Mayor of Porirua City·at Te Ara Piko pathway.
This morning Taku blessed the final stage of the Te Ara Piko pathway. It’s taken some time to get to where we are today, through planning, tireless fundraising from Plimmerton Rotary who have raised $1.3 million of the total $5.3m budget, a stunning effort and we thank them for that.
We now have this fantastic and much-loved walkway that is an impressive 5.25km from the Taylor Stace Cottage in Pauatahanui to Cambourne walkway carpark. It’s another example of what happens when a community organisation can take a literal journey with its local Council to create something that will endure for generations to come. Its accessibility for walkers and cyclists, young and old, means they can experience this beautiful and significant part of our city.
Along with Rotary, I want to thank Ngati Toa for their continuous support of the project; contractors Fulton Hogan; Tonkin & Taylor and the many consultants involved; it’s also important to recognise DoC, Forest & Bird, Guardians of Pauatahanui Inlet, PICT, Porirua Harbour & Catchment Community Trust for their input and support; and my mayoral predecessors, who have all backed this wonderful venture.
