Milford Reserve Nets Upgrade
The old toilet and changing room block at Milford Reserve is earmarked for a facelift.
Work is expected to start in mid-April to replace the longstanding brick building with a modern building.
The $1.2 million project will see eight new toilets, two showers, a double external shower, two changing rooms, a drinking station and a new seating area.
The building will have a beach-themed exterior in response to community feedback.
The old brick building had served users well but had reached the end of its life, said Devonport Takapuna Local Board chair Aidan Bennett.
“In 2018 we sought feedback from the community on what they would like to see here so I am sure everyone is excited to see it get underway.”
The areas will be fenced off during construction and four portaloos will be installed in the reserve for public use.
Construction is expected to take about three months, pending weather conditions.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
