Pedestrian access through Manga Pirau Street beach entrance

Concrete blocks across Manga Pirau Street beach access have a pedestrian sized gap.

There had been some complaints that the concrete blocks across the Manga Pirau Street beach access were placed in a way that pedestrians couldn’t get through.

They’ve now been shifted around a bit and people can walk through a gap that’s been created.

The only real problem now is that there’s nowhere to go.

The river is flowing very close to where the track is cut off.
