Mauao closure
Yes, Mauao is still closed and here's why
⬇️⬇️⬇️
👫Maintaining a safe physical distance🚶♂️
Unfortunately, due to the narrowness of parts of the tracks, a safe physical distance of 2m can't be kept.

Why don't we make it one way?
Working with the Mauao Trust we looked into this instead of closing it, but unfortunately it was not feasible given people's varying physical abilities.
Some people will still want to run while others may want to keep a more leisurely pace, and despite people's best efforts, maintaining a safe distance while passing isn't possible.
😡Other tracks are open though!😡
The main difference between Mauao and some of the other tracks that are open is volume. Truthfully, the other tracks just don't see the volume of people Mauao does.
When will it reopen?
Working with the Mauao Trust, we will look to open it as soon as it is safe to do so.
This time is allowing Mauao to take a break and replenish. Please be respectful of the closure and the measures in place for your safety.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
