Cross Country Drain in Pirimai
Did you know about the Cross Country Drain that runs along Harold Holt Avenue?
Did you know that it is owned by the Napier City Council and that you can use it like any park in Napier?
The first two pictures show what the area currently looks like.
For the past couple of years, we have been working hard to improve the area.
We are proposing:
· A pathway that connects to the other pathways across Napier.
· Trees and plantings to beautify the area and purify the waterway.
· Seating areas to rest and watch the birds.
You can read more about our proposed ideas and the supporting proposal from the Hawkes Bay Regional Council below.
