Puketāpapa Active Transport Haven (PATH) is the culmination of the many years of work that has seen the creation of the Puketāpapa Greenways Network. The goal of setting up a network of paths is not to put concrete in the ground, but to improve the wellbeing of Puketāpapa residents through them using the network actively to get around. The proposal for the Campaign has three parts involving the existing programmes of a wide number of stakeholders who will include the Auckland District Health Board, local health professionals, local schools, Auckland Transport Travelwise, the Roskill Youth Zone, PATH, Earth Action Trust, Refugees A Survivors and of course the Puketāpapa Local Board. Richard Barter on behalf of the Puketāpapa Active Transport Haven was in attendance to seek the Board’s support for a place to locate two 20’ containers to run the Roskill Bike Kitchen out of. The Roskill Bike Kitchen will restore dead bikes for the use of residents at the same time training up youth in the area in bicycle maintenance skills. |
