Te Ara Tika open for safe crossing

20 Nov 2021, 1:04 PM

In a small karakia ceremony this morning, “Te Ara Tika - The Right Pathway” was blessed by Rev Barney Winikerei, allowing pedestrians to now safely cross the railway corridor in Te Kuiti.
The main items still to be completed are the weave patterns and narrative panels, which will come complete with QR codes and sound bites. Due to COVID restrictions, there has been a delay in completing this important design aspect of the overbridge. However, once completed we will be able to host an official opening some time in the New Year.
