Motakiora/Brook Park open to the public

6 Apr 2023, 3:20 PM

Motakiora/Brook Park is open to the public again.

The hazardous slips which forced the closure of the top section of the park in February have been cleared.

Other repairs and track upgrades are still being undertaken so we ask visitors to  Motakiora/Brook Park to please exercise caution when in these areas.

Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
