Papakura Local Board chairman Brent Catchpole is calling for Auckland Transport to rethink its plans for a new cycleway on Beach Rd, Stuff reports. Work was originally set to start this month and would have seen concrete separators, nicknamed “Tim Tams” in other parts of Auckland, installed along sections of Hingaia Rd and Beach Rd. Catchpole said Papakura’s Beach Rd isn’t very wide and is a busy main arterial route. “We feel they aren’t the best option and don’t provide safety for cyclists,” he said.
