  • 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.

  • Review of Regional Parks Management Plan
    Review of Regional Parks Management Plan Issues to consider by Sandra Coney, 12 October 2020 The Regional Parks Management Plan (RPMP) https://www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/plans-projects-policies-reports-bylaws/our-plans- strategies/topic-based-plans-strategies/parks-sports-outdoor-plans/Documents/regional- parks-management-plan.pdf is being reviewed and the public and stakeholders are being consulted. The RPMP is a statutory plan developed under the Reserves Act 1977. The current plan was adopted by the Auckland Regional Council in 2010 and then passed on to Auckland Council. In the first stage of the review, the Council is asking for feedback on what is important for the RPMP to cover. Once this is received, they will draft a plan which will go out for a second round of submissions. The deadline for comments on this phase is 26 October 2020. Send your submissions to [email protected] A draft RPMP will be released for comment in July/August 2021. Sandra Coney chaired the last review and has provided a commentary to guide people taking part in this review. What you are reading is a condensed version with just the recommendations. For the full version go here http://www.piha.co.nz/things-to-do/eat- sleep/regional-park/ Feel free to lift recommendations and use them in your own submissions. This commentary is written with the Waitakere Ranges Regional Park in mind. As the largest regional park (17,000 ha), the oldest regional park, the foundational park of the regional parks’ network, and as it is close to the most populated part of the Auckland region, the Waitakere Ranges parkland deserves special attention and faces particular challenges from kauri dieback and over-use.

  • THE SCHOOL in the SWAMP by Liv Haysom I Was Really Surprised When My Mum Told Me That, in the Past, There Had Been a School In
    THE SCHOOL IN THE SWAMP By Liv Haysom I was really surprised when my Mum told me that, in the past, there had been a school in Piha. To me, this was a mystery because I only have the choice of catching the bus from my home in Piha to Oratia School, or getting a lift by car. I kept wondering why there was no longer a school at Piha. How easy my life would be if I didn’t have to travel all that way just to go to school. We then decided to go looking for the old school site. Tucked away behind the Piha Art Gallery, we discovered the tattered remains of the old school. Faded, yellow weatherboards, rusty nails and inside stood a little kitchen stove in the corner. Apart from the blackboard at the front of the room, I couldn’t imagine that this had once been a school. 1 Now I really wanted to find out more about this tiny school. Children in Piha have been taught in many unusual places including: old sheep shearing quarters, sand-blown old baches and even sheds. The first official school was in the Ushers Ocean View house, in 1910, although a school operated unofficially in the late 1890s in a building that no longer exists. In 1913 the school moved to a site at the Piha Mill until it closed down in 1921. Mr Robertson was one of the first teachers in Piha. He taught half the week at Piha and half the week at Whatipu. I wonder how he travelled such a huge distance twice a week? (JT Diamond Collection Archive No.
