  • Public Transport for the Waitakere Ranges Residents' Survey
    Public Transport for the Waitakere Ranges Residents’ Survey - Summary Report Prepared by Buzz Channel and Auckland Transport September 2017 Waitākere Ranges Public Transport Survey – Summary Report Page 1 of 69 Executive summary Auckland Transport and the Waitakere Ranges Local Board have been investigating what Public Transport services may be needed in the Waitakere Ranges area. In March/April 2016, Auckland Transport held a survey for residents of the following areas: French Bay, Henderson Valley, Huia, KareKare, Konini (Kaurilands Rd, Daffodil St, Konini Rd), Laingholm, Oratia, Parau, Paturoa Bay, Piha, South Titirangi, Te Henga (Bethells Beach), Waiatarua, Wood Bay and Woodlands Park. These areas were targeted because they either have no current public transport service, have limited service, or were having services removed when the new West Auckland bus network was implemented in June 2017. Participation In total 839 feedback forms were received. The areas with the highest participation were Huia/Cornwallis/Parau with 116 residents from this area responding, followed by Wood Bay/French Bay/Paturoa Bay/South Titirangi with 108 respondents, and thirdly Piha with 101 respondents. Initial findings In order to determine if there is sufficient demand for any new services, data was grouped by potential routes; i.e. feedback from people who lived in the same area and whose chosen destinations could be accommodated by the same route, was analysed together. In most cases the numbers of people who said they would use each of these potential routes, and how often they said they would use them, was not sufficient to operate a viable bus service. However, two possible scheduled services were identified which could be viable and would warrant further investigation.

  • Titirangi West Including Oratia, Green Bay, Wood Bay, French Bay, Konini, Waiatarua, Parau, Kaurilands, Huia, Cornwallis and Laingholm
    Titirangi West including Oratia, Green Bay, Wood Bay, French Bay, Konini, Waiatarua, Parau, Kaurilands, Huia, Cornwallis and Laingholm he wooded suburb of Titirangi is inextricably linked with certain enduring images: Ttree-huggers, potters in home-spun jumpers, old Rovers in British-racing green with Greenpeace stickers, disappearing up bush-lined driveways. Trees are to Titirangi as coffee is to Ponsonby. Mention the place and most people think “bush”, and the 1970s vintage timber houses tucked out of sight, and often out of sun, amongst the trees. Many of Titirangi’s homes sit high above the Manukau Harbour with glorious sea views and distant city vistas. The suburb’s little village emphasises the feeling that you’re far from the madding crowd. Just five minutes up the road Oratia, with its big flat sections and views back towards the city, is one of the best-kept secrets of these parts. :DLWDNHUH Population Profile 6ZDQVRQ 5DQXL (GPRQWRQ Population 25,071 % Aged Under 15 Years 22.23 % Aged Over 65 Years 10.23 3DOP+HLJKWV *OHQGHQH % European 77.33 .HOVWRQ % Maori 7.24 % Pacific Peoples 4.45 2UDWLD 2UDWLD % Asian 5.48 .DXULODQGV *OHQ(GHQ6RXWK :DLDWDUXD *UHHQ%D\ Who Lives There? 7LWLUDQJL :RRG%D\ Traditionally, Titirangi has appealed to 0DFNLHV5HVW 0DFNLHV5HVW )UHQFK%D\ the artistically inclined and to bush-lovers.

  • New Lynn's Brickmakers (1860S to 2015)
    New Lynn’s brickmakers (1860s to 2015) The early brickmakers Early brickmaking operations in the New Lynn area date back to the mid 1860s, when Richard Ringrose, Alfred Bayes and John Redfern set up small-scale works near Delta Avenue near the New Lynn Bowling Green and (later) behind the former site of the Delta Theatre, until at least the early 1870s. 1 Alfred Ramsden, a brickmaker and building contractor, set up a temporary brickyard to supply the bricks for his New Lynn Hotel construction project on Great North Road in 1882, 2 and went on from that to be a contractor working in the central city, 3 then Napier, and then Melbourne, where he apparently found success in that city’s 1888 land boom. 4 From 1883 5 until 1890, 6 James Archibald operated what was a substantial brickmaking operation for the time on around 3 acres of railway reserve land in New Lynn. This was not received with universal approval among nearby settlers, who took an unsuccessful petition to their parliamentary representative to try to have Archibald’s lease of the land he used cancelled. 7 In May 1889, there were only four known brickmaking firms in operation south of the Whau River: Malam, Laurie, Hepburn and Archibald. 8 At some point from at least 1904 until around 1914, William Thomas and his sons operated a small brickworks on Riverview Farm (today the site of parts of Rimu, Miro and Nikau Streets, as well as Queen Mary Avenue, Durrant Place and Kuaka Place, beside the Whau River). According to Trevor N Price in a family history, 9 the family built a scow and conveyed their bricks to Auckland for such projects as part of the Chelsea Sugar Works and the Parnell Post Office.
